The wave on the ocean of love

"There is no need for you to become the Unborn.

The true Unborn has nothing to do with fundamental

principles,

and it´s beyond becoming or attaining. It´s simply being

as you are."

 

From: "The Unborn: The life and teaching of Zen master Bankei" 

 

 

 

 

 

                          Running from the past             Striving for a future

 

like a lost wave crossing

 

the ocean of love

 

in search

 

for happiness

 

not seeing the beauty of Being

 

a movement of boundless love and infinite depth

Amy Valentina
We are all but a lost wave
Floating unmindful yet mindful on the ocean of love
Searching endlessly and yet not knowing
We are where we ought to be
O the ocean of love.

Had to be a poetical response.
Truly amazing!!!

LOL,

Another beauty, N T.
As always, your words flow naturally from the chosen quotation. The wave imagery is particularly fitting and I like the formatting too.
Applause!
