No Hold

11/12/10

Great pleasure, joy, love,

invariably can hook us,

create desire for more,

a grasping and clinging

which rings death knell

for surprising natural unfoldment,

freedom then gets caged

when trying to reproduce

that which 'once was',

never to be again

always an impossible dream

within ever changing world,

better to be curious,

open to what's next,

emotionally flexible when receiving,

following, sequential virgin moments

without comparison, feeling awe,

wonder, for miraculous adventure

no hold can keep.
