A Full moon Lesson

 Life moves slowly these days

as if there's roadwork ahead.

I saw a couple of signs, of course,

but I get impatient in my head.

It drips into my heart space

and then pours over the temple roof

as I sit on the warm floor

to patiently learn this game.

"Observe," She says, "the restlessness,

the clutter and the utter congestion;

Observe, my child, how all that moves

and slowly conquer your mind.

What you'll see will save your heart

and open your tight-shut eyes.

You'll know that happiness is a choice

and That. Will. Set. You. Free."
