Daily

 


I'm learning not to pine for

the big enlightenment,
the grand moment
when all illusion is stripped away

Instead I practice gratitude
for each new place
where I can be struck with love,
each small blindness from which
I can be enlightened

For there are so many!
Maybe even enough to last a lifetime  -
daily bursts of waking up
just a little bit,
daily bright joy for my new small glimpses
of infinite Truth.
