"Pass the bean curd, please." Ant family in the dish drain- nothing wasted.

IF A BLOOM... If there is ~~ a bloom ne'er have you sniffed, pass the soft petals to me. If there is a fruit ne'er have you swallowed, share that sweet essence with me. If there is a lovebird ne'er have you heard, seek its lone calling for me. If there is a sunrise ne'er have you watched, show its true color to me.

If there is a place ne'er have you touched, find that warm place on ~~

LIFE MOVES... You are ~~ content with your life, morning strolls in the maze of terrazas, virtual chats, wearing that slate blue hat.. I am satisfied with life, my grandchildren, alone at the rocky path of waterfalls, wearing this floppy hat.. Years move on like mist across the ridge.

"Muy importante que se cambia los cuerpos con frecuencia," he says. "Si, cambiar," you say, understanding to change the bodies on the cross frequently. He takes your pesos. "Exchange the bodies, but why?" you mumble. "Porque," replies the old man, wheeling his cart down Calle Voces, "porque est..es.. e..," his words fade...

SEEKER... We as Seekers uncover ~~ the Us in Each, the Each in Some, the Sum in One, the One in Us ~~
