Beginning

Where it begins

Lying down at the start of the day,

I move towards stillness,

which deepens.

Then, several moments feel like the start of the universe,

opening from space,

to a fresh new light.

This new space,

just waiting now –

Nothing has happened yet,

little arising,

apart from the breath.

Which is given to me,

in each moment,

without my any effort –

immeasurable generosity toward me,

from out of where?

Then, I check the metaphor ,

“ Like the start of the universe”…

And it feels an underestimate –

Though I could be wrong…
