DRAGGING the VEHICLE ALONG

This old body is a trial
Like a broken down shoe,
I'm a single sock where once were two
Wanderer in the night,
I stumble in the daylight
A shrunken car,
These days I can't go far
Thinking on dancing Shiva,
I wish I were a true believer

I love the John Burroughs quote on your sidebar. You seem a deep, thoughtful thinker. This getting old thing, and I'm right there with you, is sure a new challenge for us. How can we piece together some peace? Some beauty? Judy

Yes, perhaps being a 'true believer' would make things easier, but I shall never know.

in the terms the Dalai Lama sets...i think we ARE true believers....
true to turning our faces to the Path and Just Going. I think that's
belief enough for one lifetime...

Close your eyes and envision your Self dancing as mirror image to Shiva.
even if the body can't, the Heart can dance.

I love you so much.....
