All That is That

It seems so long ago now
I learnt to talk.
I learnt to smell and walk
and then to see.



All of that
It seems so long ago.



And life then came along
It thought me of its talk,
Of its smell and walk.
And how to see and be


A certain way
That seems so long ago


So much so that now I see
that I forgot.
That life taught me all of that
and my becoming nearly that


That certain way.
Not long ago.



Then perfect stillness speaks
And tells me of its talk.
No sweeter smells no gentler walk
Just seeing more than just a glimpse.


This certain way
Is All that is
And All that is, is
That
