Clouds Come Clouds Go
by Joe Holtaway
'Clouds come and clouds go my mind is a clear blue sky' are the words of Thich Nhat Hanh. When I first heard Thich Nhat Hanh's teachings I was touched by the simple and profound way he drew on nature to reflect human experience. I have been involved in his international community for some years, I put these words to melody one evening in his monastery, Plum Village, in one of meditation halls, an inspiring time just after most other friends had gone to bed, I stayed up just a little longer :)
