"There is in all visible things... a hidden wholeness."
                                                 -Thomas Merton


The world in its annual plight
Revolves around interconnections,
The cyclical nature of the seasons:
Beauty and flaws
Light and darkness
Life and death.

They complement each other
Like the air we breathe,
Or the manner
Of breathing in
And breathing out.

We strive to be whole,
To seek balance and live with it;
Bringing us closest to who we are –
Raw, complex, beautiful and rare.

The rest are quixotic.
