THE FLOOD









All you love is disappearing
into the floods.
Time and truth will dissolve it,
drown it
and all that is not love
and all that is not you.

Rather than mourn the relentless waters
of unquestionable  imminence.
See perhaps that it is your gift;
A friendly flood even,
that is offering you something fresh and new,
beautifully alive
in each moment.

To involve yourself fully
with all that is disappearing underwater
without a judgement
or the need for it to stay or go,
or your happiness being absolutely dependent on its
coming or going.
This is true,
courageously beautiful love.
