The crossing of the street
turned
and realized it was
the crossing of the street.
The flowing of the river
churned
and realized it was
the flowing of the river.
The oven being touched
burned
and realized it was
the oven being touched.
The aching of the heart
yearned
and realized it was
the aching of the heart.
The slavery to the job
earned
and realized it was
the slavery to the job.
The words of the poem
learned
and realized they were
the words of poem.

My Blog primarily consists of close-up nature photos (that I've taken locally) combined with original holistic-truth oriented prose and/or poetry involving mindfulness/awareness. I love nature and I love understanding the whole (not merely the parts and the details). I'm a retired teacher of the multiply handicapped.
I have a number of interesting hobbies, such as fossil collecting, sport-kite flying, 3D and 2D close-up photography, holography, and pets. Most of all, I am into holistic self-awareness, spontaneous insight, unconventional observation/direct perception, mindfulness, meditation, world peace, non-fragmentation, population control, vegetarianism, and green energy.

Beautiful writing.
Thank you! It’s meant to help change from separative, isolated viewpoints.
I wrote a 68 page paper in college addressing this very subject. Your poignant writing paints a much lovelier picture. Your words open a window with a view of what the world looks like. They portray life as it could be when the natural order of things is embraced, rather than shunned and ignored.
Thanks Jude. Your words are very kind indeed! When most everyone you know, or ever knew, have a propensity to look at life totally differently than you do… it can feel a bit weird at times!
That’s wonderful that you wrote a college paper along similar lines. Hopefully, your college professor was not so “within the norm” so as to not be appreciative of it!
