Simply open your fingers
Let the squashed little bird
With ruffled feathers
Fly out of your palm

No need for clenching
Just soften, release the fists
We are not here to defeat the world
But offer ourselves as a gift

Open your hands with courage
The whole universe pulsates
In each of your trembling fingers
Fragile and eager

Just open to wonder
Allow the tender petals to unfold
And bloom effortlessly
Through your fingertips
