“If you wish to know how something ends
Look at its beginning.”
-Traditional Saying
Breaking apart, the acorn
Goes deep into the earth;
And as the seasons pass
Grows into a mighty oak.
Spreading its limbs for many years,
Giving shade and nourishment to the countryside;
One day, only to decay
And return back to the earth.
O spiritual traveler, when you close your eyes
For the last time, where will you go?
The dual sparks of energy
That joined and exploded
Inside your mother’s womb,
Carry you through your days.
Then one day, this energy too
Must journey on to the next place.
Where will this life energy take you?
Remember, it was Love
That brought you here,
And Love will carry you
From world to world;
Finally to return Home
And celebrate anew
In your Mother’s Arms.
