Letting Fade.
Every wave of the sea owes it curved
beauty to the retreat
of the one that precedes
*
*
and all flowers must wither to bear
seed which then loosens
and falls to produce more blooms.
*
*
If through attachment to the past
today cannot make room
for tomorrow\'s happiness we may
refuse the truth that
perpetual harmony only happens
by our letting fade
any disasters of yesterday
to better attract a happier future.
