Barefoot: My dialogue with creation
Tuesday, September 8, 2009 @ 4:50 AM
(A retreat activity. These are compilations of haikus, quotes, and poems that I have created during the said activity.)
Flowers are stationaryTo some they are ordinary
But to me they symbolized simplicity
A gift from God and a thing of beauty
Trees no matter how tall they arenever seem to detach from its branches
Humans should be like the trees
Tall and strong
but never forgets the place in which they grew.
Small creature walksWalking in a straight line
Ants look for meaning
Rocks are scatteredbecause they want to be noticed.
As I sit on this rockI start to look back
To all the things that happened to me
Not in my dreams but in reality

Don't be afraid of falling
because someday, somehow
someone will pick you up
(an inspiration from my falling eraser :P)
There's nothing wrong with silence.Being silent means
collecting yourself again.
Under the shadow
is where the fearful hides.
