All that time spent
prospecting for the source –
the fountain of youth
overflowing.
“Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there.“
The sought-after
hidden in a forgotten cave
no further away
than your thumb.
(Time Celebrants, poems written out of encounters with the I Ching, The Book of Changes.)
Wonderful poem. Sometimes we only need to look to see what’s there
Thanks. Yes, to look.
I’ve been reading about John Cage’s use of hexigrams in his music. Such profound and beautiful imagery and meaning!
I had forgotten John Cage’s engagement with the changes! Thanks for the reminder.
Wonderful words and amazing image!
To kind… but thank you!
You’re more than welcome 🙏
That song popped right into my brain, thanks for the ear worm! I saw Yes in concert many years ago, great band.
!!!
I always thought the lyrics were: voices come out of the sky! Who knew!
All that time spent…
Eyes closed,
Ears shut…
This is an exquisite piece.
Glad you think so.
I totally enjoyed your insights and engaging thoughts that captured my attention the whole time Richard! Well that is, until I hit lint (which was fascinating too) and I couldn’t get back to you.. lol😎
Anch’io uso I Ching. Mirabile oracolo di saggezza
Lo è sicuramente.
Well now… aren’t you just full of surprises Mr. Reeves… ❤︎
Glad you think so.
