As Quotidian Becomes a Song

If the dominant theme of my life

is an undercurrent of love,

was the cosmos built for me?

No! It evolved from a past

which is becoming tomorrow.

Every step is an ascension to hope.

Hope is the realization of dreams.

Love is the magnetism

which holds everything together.

The tao is the current which

we cannot deny but must adapt to.

There is a rhythm of the cosmos

which turns the quotidian into song

and enlivens our lives.
