Living The Wisdom of The Tao. 
Verse 26.
Through the inspirations of my spiritual mentor Dr. Wayne Dyer,
I have undertaken this year, (as he did in 2006), the teachings of the
eighty-one verses of the "Tao Te Ching." Legend says that the "Tao"
(pronounced "Dao") was written by the prophet "Lao-tzu" some five
hundred years before the birth of Christ. The interpretation of the words
Tao is "The Way" Te is "The Shape and Power" and Ching is "the Book."
It has been called "one of the profoundest books in world philosophy."
For my references I have been studying the interpretations and teachings of
Dr. Dyer from his book "Change Your Thoughts - Change Your Life."
In the spirit of Eagle Eye, here is my inspired (poetic) interpretation of
Verse 26.

                             Calmly


               Still, is the master of unrest.
                  For he is poised, centred
                     and never unswayed.

          Calmly maintaining a beautiful sense
                     of quiet and serenity.
         The gifted ability to remain calm within.

             The inner posture, ever peaceful.
           A choice of calmness and tranquility,
          without disturbance, blame, or turmoil.

     Like the beautiful blossoms of a spring garden,
             the flowers reach naturally, calmly,
                    for a warm sun's light.

                 The ultimate calling of Life.
             A harmony, alignment, and balance,
                  all chosen in a blissful state of
                                Calm.

Live. Inspired.
