conquer .osi

' one '

surrender , to the rain
filling thirsty rivers ,
to the spark of a firefly
enlivening the night ,
a canorous bird call
alive in a symphony ,
imagine
a raven saying hello
dream
of a wild rose laughing
feel
the heat of a forest fire
embrace
a starry moment
from the timeless galaxies
that need to conquer nothing
nobody
but simply belong to me
as i belong to them ..

    to surrender to beauty without expectations, or attempting to conquer it ... to allow it to enliven me ... how wonderful this piece makes me feel.

    Your poem could be my theme song. It is so beautiful! I feel these things whenever I am in the woods and fields. There isn't any better expression of God, is there?

    I love the way you've used the stillness of other'ness' to slow the mind and find the spirit!

    oh, WOW, zoya! This is exactly what I was groping for but could not quite get. You opened your arms wide and it just flowed out. Yes, yes. This is a poem to keep in front of me always.
