Ok, just to give you some needed info.  Ai Ki is japanese, it means harmony with all life energy.


Nothing good or bad
Just different shades of grey
All in its own place

Balance in perfect
Flow from one to another
Everything Ai Ki

every day is a new day with which we can change the world

Good work, Keith, and thanks for the explanation.  I love new words!

This sounds so relaxing.. Ai ki.. perhaps that is a similar feeling to meditaion? Heh, or maybe not.. I've never meditated, so I don't know that feeling anyway.. This is beautifully written, and thank you for showing us this beautiful word.. it sure sounds beautiful from your poem, anyway..
Love,
Lynne
