As An Architect

A thought, a vision�
from a walk down a street,
or an encounter with someone,
or a walk in nature,
�a breeze in treetops,
�the call of a gull in a blue sky;
float around in my head,
until I get inspired
to write this down as best I can.

Then someone comes along
looks at my writing,
changes it, oh so slightly, or a lot,
and makes my visions; my thoughts,
clearer; come alive,
like flowers opening to welcome
the morning sun
then I understand how more people
can understand, can share
the visions given me...

I am like an architect,
who allows others to make suggestions,
to help complete the structure;
bringing my vision
into a greater, collective, reality.
Is there an easier way
to discover the fact of our connectedness,
our �one-ness�?
