My way is whichever way the wind blows
My way is wherever the wide river flows
Attuned to life's cycles and aligned with nature's course
My way is like an autumn leaf dancing in a stream
Carried effortlessly by the current
I float along my merry way
From the outside, my way looks foolish
I do not tow the party line
A loner, aloof and adrift
Refusing society's moorings
On the inside, my way is still
At home wherever I go
Resting, in the deepest pool of contentment
Precious few join me on my way
Precious few understand
Though, sometimes, I meet a stranger
A comrade!
And greet, like old friends reunited
They too, clear-sighted
Bonded by the unspoken knowing
My way is rarely travelled, yet known for abundant riches
My way is the road not taken, yet a plain and open secret
My way is available right now, will you not simply take it?
For your information, I'll even tell you its name...
My way is Wu Wei
