Imagine Yourself
By Amba Gale
Imagine yourself a leaf,
being carried by the river.
There, you will know Peace.
Imagine yourself a feather
being danced by the wind that carries.
There you will know Joy.
Imagine yourself a lake,
rained on by the clouds
There, you will know Fullness.
Imagine yourself a stream,
being a bed for the salmon.
There you will know Birth and Death.
Imagine yourself an ear,
listening to another’s heart.
There, you will meet Compassion.
Imagine yourself a heron,
fishing the abundant water.
There, you will be Patience.
Imagine yourself as a poet,
facing the blank, white page.
There, you will find Simplicity.
