About 7:30 p.m. These are like slides Picture frames in my mind In the morning Sitting in the car The birds fly From tree to tree Stay with the ancient Tao Watchful, like men crossing a winter stream Alert, like men aware of danger Courteous, like visiting guests Yielding, like ice about to melt Simple, like uncarved blocks of wood Oh men of Tao The ancient way is not lost It is not lost

Men Of Tao
About 7:30 p.m. These are like slides Picture frames in my mind In the morning Sitting in the car The birds fly From tree to tree Stay with the ancient Tao Watchful, like men crossing a winter stream Alert, like men aware of danger Courteous, like visiting guests Yielding, like ice about to melt Simple, like uncarved blocks of wood Oh men of Tao The ancient way is not lost It is not lost
