Rise and Fall

Let go of fear 
and rest in that which is.
For peace, like love,
comes to those who allow it.

Let go of fear
and rest in stillness.
Watch the breath rise... 
and fall.

Watch the tide rise... 
and fall.
Watch towers rise... 
and fall.

Watch walls rise... 
and fall.
Watch statues rise... 
and fall.

Watch empires rise... 
and fall.
Watch the breath rise... 
and fall.

Let go of fear
and rest in the arms
of the One
who has always held you,
the One who holds
atoms and empires
and oceans and stars.

Let go of fear 
and watch what happens next.

	- Larry Robinson



There are those who are trying to set fire to the world,
we are in danger,
there is time only to work slowly,
there is no time not to love.

   - Deena Metzger
