I say Hi! to the rock
And give it a name: You are rock.
No response from the rock
I say Hi! to the wind
And give it a name: You are wind.
No response from the wind
I say Hi! to the moon
And give it a name: You are moon.
No response from the moon
I talk to and name many things
But I am ignored
Phenomena is complete within itself
It does not need me to mediate
If I just sit and watch and listen
Communication is there
