The Gentleness That Follows Into Dreams Poem by Raj Arumugam

today’s theme
dearest love, O unknowing love
is the gentleness that is you;
it is the quiet
like the yin in the Dao
unformed, not fixed and forming
in constant flow;
and gentle and open and soft
and its softness its strength;
and so today I saw that, I felt that in you
in your word, in your gesture
in your walk across the aisle;
and your softness follows me home to my quiet dreams
like the shadows below the trees
