If It Is Written Poem by RIC BASTASA

if it is written
then what shall i do?

shall i wait
till the words come true?

shall i stand
and just watch how these written things
come into themselves
like a growing lily on the pond?

things come to you
the floors make themselves under your feet

it is written
so why worry? live life
and life meets you
whatever is it

you just wait
and that is the excitement

the windows simply construct themselves
and the door opens
like hands that meet and shake you

they all say
welcome, everything is ready
and they had all been waiting
for you
