Letting Go

Whatever you have in your mind - forget it;

Whatever you have in your hand - give it;

Whatever is to be your fate - face it!

Abu Sa'id

ah the art of letting go

of expectations

dreams

agendas

I have not mastered it

I tend to clutch desperately

as an old man to youth

to my cherished thoughts

my precious “things”

and yet the art of obtaining

all that the Sacred has to offer

involves not grasping

but letting go

it is being a leaf on the river

borne quickly

into

Sacred future
