Transformation

Rocks:

Do not resist them.

Only go around

And around and around...

Eventually go over

Go through

Carry the rock away

Atoms at a time

Over time

The soft space

That replaces the rock

Will respond to the light,

To life

And there will emerge

In the still space

One lily

Crisp and white

And open to the sun

A small sun

In itself

Its yellow core

Promising life again

As the lily anchors itself

To the earth.

Only give it time.
