Living from the Void

The vital essence
of each musical note of a symphony
is the silence
from whence it comes,

What is
depends
on what is not,

That is
the value of the void,
that inner space
that forms the clay pot,
or the emptiness
that defines the interior of a house,
or the state of non-being
that creates your psychic core,

That Tao part of you
where thoughts emerge,
kind and pure,
activating your unique usefulness,

Allow and let go,
like breathing love
from the placeless place within you,
passionate ideas flowing through your mind,
to the physical world,
outward,
manifesting a sweet resonating harmony.
