from
Meditation
...
Let go your breath, your spirit--
into waterfall roar,
windy rush of pines.
Let go your husbands, your wives,
that they may be your lovers;
let go your lovers
that they may be your friends;
let go your friends
that they may remain your friends,
steady as oaks;
let go your daughters
that they may grow strong
and dance like willows;
let go your sons, your sons,
that they may lead you
where you had thought to lead them.
