Participate

Have you ever seen night going?

The midnight and his sun?

The sunrise and his beauty?

We are behaving almost like blind people.

In such a beautiful world

we are living

in small pounds

of our own misery.

Otherwise there is

so much joy all around.

You have just to be

aware of it and

to become a participant

not a spectator.

Philosophy is speculation

Zen is participation;

Participate

in the night leaving

participate

in the evening coming.

Participate in the stars and

participate in the clouds.

Make participation

your lifestyle and

the whole existence

becomes such a joy,

such an ecstasy.

You could not have dreamt

Of a better Universe.
