 Inquiry

Openly questioning honestly the way that I act;
Seeking out the solutions, the reasons, the truth.
Sitting and asking why, then watching my thoughts;
As inquiry enables me to engage my inner sleuth.

There can be no pre-conceived answers to my quest;
As complete openness is without negotiation is this.
I begin by sitting in the floor and counting my breath;
As my thoughts slow, I ask; staying out of the abyss.

Floating up are colors, moods, emotions, and feelings;
Sensing the subtle answers from deep in my very core.
Staying with the answer, open within… watching, feeling;
 Until the seed is planted; then I continuing to explore.

The seed grows with watering,  slowly climbing to the sun;
Gently pruning, becoming day by day someone very new.
More in line with my soul, with the values of presence;
Each inquiry leads to the possibility of becoming true.

Why do I do what I do???  
Inquiry assists me in understanding,
then opening the door
to the possibility of change.
