22. GRACEFUL SURRENDER
Life is surrounded by graceful surrender
nature too is not spared
geese surrender to the first autumn chills
and consider flying south
flowers surrender to the night
the setting sun surrenders
to the horizon of another day
a mother surrenders
to the needs of her baby
the child surrenders
to the wisdom of the father
friends surrender to each other
lovers surrender to moments of desire
love surrenders to society and pride
partners surrender to a stable family
surrender of job for the sake of earning
surrendering views fearing others around
life surrenders to death with no choice
surrender so sweet beautiful and natural
as the flow of the river;
graceful movements in a dance
the subtle symphony of life
as one surrenders the mind
to god in all empty moments
attaining the best in harmony with the self.
