I witness the city awakening from my mountain top,
Forty floors below Ho Chi Minh sighs,
The cacophony of an ocean arouses my senses,
no sea to be seen, the city stirs,
I sit in stillness,
Seconds become minutes, minutes become hours,
Stillness so profound and rooted it touches the creator,
Piercing boundless intelligence,
No city, no mountain, no ocean, no self,
Out of nothing a breath stirs a tidal force flows outward,
Grace rides the wave,
Beauty beyond all beauty,
Euphoria explodes, joy spreads, bliss prevails.
