Creational Imperatives

Thirty spokes of a wheel join at a center
Yet only the hole allows the wheel to spin

Clay is molded to form a cup
Yet only the space within allows the cup to hold water

Walls join to make a room
But you must cut out a door and window to enter and live there
Tao 11

Make a place
For cool breezes
Make a place for butterflies

Make a place for lilies, white and fragile
Make a place for imagined fairies and elves

In the midst of all the pressing things
Make a place for the unexpected
For those things that - in deference to the Angels -
Will never demand or insist
