Though we run
After our thoughts often
And, feel behind
Know that this
Is only
A manifestation
Of the mind
Running after itself
In a
Convoluted loop
Expressed as so
Since the beginning of time
Though, as we begin
To pay attention
And have
The
Realization
That this is so
We learn
To sit
And
Notice our thoughts
As they come and go
They are
An expression
Of memories from afar
Which we need not
Trod to bring to heel
Rather, sitting
And watching can
Bring the freedom,
And healing
Which is such a natural
Feeling
So, friend, do sit
And partake in all
The splendor your mind
Can conjure
And release the burden
Which are brought
Without
A second thought

The river flows
Just as the wind blows
And the streams
In our veins grow
With life
A beautiful and tranquil
Existence
Of a long, and
Adored magnificence
Bending to the right
A mighty flight
Of fancy
Even prancy with delight
A memory of times
Gone by, yet
Filled with light
Luminous
And sparkling
As the sun shines
And the water dances
For the heavens, and is
Now beckoned
To the left
Never bereft
Only filled with
Sweet and blessed
Presence
Of Mind
Which is sublime
Each and every
Moment at a time
Breathe in deep, then
My friend, and
Take each
And every moment in
As their magnificence
Is a mirror
Of your very existence
