Just a Pause

Just take a pause
on the way to getting there.
Make the task master of time
answer for every moment.

Let your life slow down
and proceed with care.
All cause and effect
intersect at this point.

If the world seems mean,
take refuge in your heart.
If the world seems joyous,
radiate it out.

Remain in the breathing present
and the vastness of its wisdom.
Yes, darkness is fast approaching,
so we must hold up the lamp of love.
