9 Venti

9 winds are with me: Today, Here and Now.
8 songs call me, their melodies echoing in shells, as present as ever. 7 sunrays awaken and meet me again and again, where longing finds fulfillment.
6 rays of light guide me, from inside to outside and back to myself.
5 distances flow together, where waves break powerfully on the beach, surrender and speak with me.
4 wing beats, and my heart reaches infinity.
3 breaths, and still and more, my mind loves the knowledge of unknowing, whose best friend is silence.
2 steps and an exhale, until the colors of the departing sun arrive within me and conjure a new watercolor, whose variety and beauty leave me speechless.
1 new morning, which revives my soul
and never fades away.

In every direction, a moment from my life reveals itself to me as meaningful as ever: Today, Here and Now
