    THE TAO OF BROTHER D'EE

    Peer into the eyes
    Of the one whom you do not see
    And you shall find yourself

    Observe closely the leaf's contures
    To determine the direction
    It shall take when breezes stir
    Its fragile beauty
    Then follow the leaf's path
    To discover the beauty
    Of change

    Do not curse the day
    Nor rue the darkness
    But curse the darkness
    Of the rueful day

    Admire art
    And, if courageous
    Closely examine
    Inherent mistakes
    Of the artist's brush stroke
    It is there you shall uncover
    The mystery of
    The artist's true intent

    Listen to the cadence of water
    As it encounters the rock
    In a natural flow the water
    Finds the path of least resistance
    To acchieve its victory

    A woman speaks mindful of words
    A man speaks words of his mind
    Therefore women speak
    Mindfully

    Shout in silence
    Speak without shouting
    And the world shall
    Listen intently

    An infants tears reflect pain
    An adult's pain reflects tears
    And yet, an infant is more truthful
    For an adult conceals tears
    Within their pain

    Mankind is cunning
    Yet live in a state of bewilderment
    For, in aspiring to unlock
    The secrets of Dvinity
    Mankind fails to admire
    The reflection of Divinity
    In the eyes of nature
