Now it is true

DORIS KERNS QUINN

Are you
waiting
waiting for
waiting for the moving
waiting for the moving of the water?

Why not
why not accept
why not accept today
the solidity of Truth?

Now
now it is true.
Not when the waters move
not in a year
in a month
a week or a day.
Not even
five minutes from now—
but now
in the eternal stillness
Truth
is true.

Why not
rise
and accept the healing?
Now.
