Stillness

Dragonfly’s nature flits from stillness
changing directions on each quest
obscure blur, endless hurry
never allowed to rest

But see the brilliance thru the stillness
sunlight now glinting off your wings
effulgence of the Seer
shining radiance brings

There’s a perspective now to stillness
a different outlook, point of view
when all the darting ceases
eternal truth comes thru

Feel the magnificence in stillness
a kind of splendor all its own
the pausing of just being
wherein the truth is known
