Open or Closed


When I open a space for the Divine,
the universe opens a space for me.

When I close my eyes to what is,
I close my life to what can be.

The answer to every question I ask
is already in the palm of my hand.

  1. You feature some of the most interesting photos around. It amazes me though how each one fits so nicely with your words. It's a gift, my friend and you use it well!!

    If you lie north-northeast
    It might be open.

    If you lie south-southwest
    What was open is now closed --

    As closed as childhood
    Or empty Easter eggs.

    The wonder has gone
    Into the branches overhead

    That no longer house birds
    As skyscrapers house families.

    The arc of the sky broods
    But does not rainbow.
