A poem with seasonal reflections.

Enough
is all
I really need.

Stillness
more than
speed or deed.

Silence
more than
my own voice.

Patience
now, the best
first choice.

Ambition
fades, and
I can see.

Less is more
and more
to me.

I've been thinking deeply about the meaning of "Dayenu" and this is a lovely distillation. Thank you, Christopher!
