Flow and Rest:
Movement is flow, ever in flight,
Stillness rest, calm and light.
One advances with a graceful stride,
The other pauses, side by side.
Active and Quiet:
Movement active, dynamic and bold,
Stillness quiet, a story untold.
One navigates with a forward pace,
The other waits, in a tranquil space.
Motion and Calm:
Movement motion, a ceaseless race,
Stillness calm, a gentle embrace.
One journeys with an eager heart,
The other remains, never to part.
Motion and Calm:
Movement is motion, swift and bright,
Stillness calm, serene sight.
One flows with a vibrant grace,
The other rests in a tranquil space.
Action and Pause:
Movement is action, a journey’s call,
Stillness pause, where peace falls.
One strides forth with eager feet,
The other finds, reflection sweet.
Motion and Rest:
Movement, life in active dance,
Stillness, where the mind can trance.
Movement, energy and pace,
Stillness, finds a quiet place.
Movement, rushes, seeks the thrill,
Stillness, calm and peaceful still.
Both together, balance find,
In their harmony, peace of mind.
