Carried Away

Carried Away
4/17/10

Certainly this life will
continue to transport us
over forever shifting terrain,
though ego plays part
that can't be underestimated
through constancy of choice,
no matter if daily
saying 'yes' to sameness
there are still transitions,
warps in space, time
continuum that is Existence,
the body matures, ages,
wisdom hopefully keeps growing
as with emotional expression
while spiritual connection deepens
when moving toward death,
this frontier awaits everything
of earthly, physical nature,
even Sun will die,
and we get practice
by letting go situations
which no longer serve,
whether it's self induced
or circumstances say 'no'
opportunities feather the nest,
where we'll find comfort
if able to relax
lighten up, foreswear security
carried away by wind.
