   Differences make all the difference   
   for those and to sum all things add up.   
      
   Subtraction may give one traction to a point.   
   A few verses in a Taoist text arrive to mine.   
      
   To gain ground, a flower flowers in the eyes   
   of those who can't see a flower being for no   
   reason other than one, two, three & 10k be.   
      
   A flower reaches for a star, a sun, the Sun.   
   To say it does sew to reproduce its elf, its   
   elves may sound like myth, ore moths.   
      
   Doing nothing, a flower is drawn to flower   
   by all the factors which draw it near to be   
   no thing other than what it is, to flower.   
      
   Asking why, the reason, children's dew   
   condenses out of learning language.   
   Those who seek knowledge, gain.   
      
   Ways are Ways, is a given, axiomatic.   
   Those who seek Tao can be said to be yet   
   another one of all the ones that are.   
      
   Finding the Tao that is the Tao,   
   one could be said to be, not-always,   
   not-common, unusual, two say the least.   
      
   Civilization springs from the earth, Earth,   
   flowering as it flowers. As if it exists and is   
   separate from. Those who carve, carve.   
      
   - metaphors vary ... Thanks! Cheers!
