Letting Go

A view from Bud Preston's house....Mira and Marko's guitar teacher.

I hope you enjoy this poem below....it speaks to me :)

Namaste,

Michele

Woman with Flower

I wouldn't coax the plant if I were you.

Such watchful nurturing may do it harm.

Let the soil rest from so much digging.

And wait until it's dry before you water it.

The leaf's inclined to find its own direction;

Give it a chance to seek the sunlight for itself.

Much growth is stunted by too much prodding,

Too eager tenderness.

The things we love we have to learn to leave alone.
