empty vessel
containing no thing
no thought no memories
vast new landscape
blank canvas
smell of freshness
newly stretched
onto the frame
the lived dream
of meditators
the perception of
newborns

MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Oh! my’
meditating on the I
where is it, oh! my
comfy cushion
cross legged pose
contemplating
on words those
inside the body
hiding obscurely
amongst others
anchored surely
fleeting moment
this big mystery
as life becomes
history
MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Bliss Meditation’
the silence, the emptiness
caressing the mind
here and there random
thought form, impulse
a wave of bliss
passing through
softly
alertness one moment
close to sleep the next
stillness unmoved
just the slow breath
lifting the ribs
feeling of nothingness
connected to the whole
falling
inside an eruption
fire flowing
in a stream
no resistance
freedom
instead
MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Sudden Shift’
It may be healing
For whatever feeling
To go to the forest
Breathe air at its best
Cookies and tea
Fell inside me
Turn a new leaf
No more beef
Walk or ride
Move with pride
No smelly fumes
Silence no booms
Crack of a dawn
My daily yawn
Instead of papers
Fresh flower vapors
Coffee forgotten brew
Kombucha with a dew
Clap my hands to chant
My diet now fully plant
Om and hum feel the beat
Lift your bum bare both feet
Rite of passage in middle age
Breaking the bond fleeing the cage
Touch of breeze on my face
Being gifted divine grace
Sudden shift from foggy mind
Walking gently and being kind
Now stop and breathe
