Grasping The Awe

words whether they are vocalized
 into sounds or remain unspoken as thoughts
 can cast an almost hypnotic spell on you
 you easily lose yourself in them
 and can become hypnotized into implicity
 believing, that when attach a word to something
 you know what it is the fact is you don't know
 you have only covered up the mystery with a label
 everything a bird a tree even a simple stone
 and certainly a human being is ultimately unknowable
 becoming shallow lifeless deadened
 to life unfolding around you within
 grasping the awe inside around you
 when you stare a flower or a bird let it be
 without imposing a word or label to it
 a sense of awe and wonder arises within you
 and takes you to the source
 a sense of the miraculous returns to your life
 that was lost long ago
 the quicker you attach words to things people or situations
 the more shallow and lifeless your reality becomes
 and the more deadened you become to the miracle
 of life that continuously unfolds within and around you
 all we can perceive and experience is the surface
 layer of reality less than the tip of the iceberg
 listen to silence
 words reduce reality to something the
 human mind can grasp which isn't very much
