Living The Wisdom of The Tao.
Verse 15.

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 interpretations 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 15.


                       Unhurried


            Patiently, the Unhurried waits.
          It's wisdom, subtle, yet profound.
               Yielding quietly, slowly,
                   like muddy waters
                   that become clear,
              when allowed to be stilled
                     and left to settle.

            Do not rush, the early ripening
         for the fruit is best, when left to be;
                       Until it's time.
                  Relax the simple state
                      and let it flow.
                 Witness the unfolding,
               of all it's unlimited potential.

                      Observe the peace,
                          Unhurried...
                   and a destiny fulfilled,
                in harmony and in gratitude
                  for it's willingness eternal.

                         Stop the chase...
                  It see's within, and trusts,
                     the gentleness that is...
                              "The Way;"
                              Unhurried.

Live Inspired.
