I am living a life of Zen, that flows to pen; poems of peace, in quiesce ... and in daily meditation, seek creation; of boundless thoughts, ~ parade of ought's ... I embrace my beginners mind, for I was blind; to calm feelings, ... and life's ceilings_ ________________ July 19, 2021 Poetry/Rhyme/A Life of Zen Copyright Protected, ID 07-1374-294-19 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, 12 lines in Rhyme sponsor, Joseph May, Judged 07/25/2021 First Place

Excellent, Constance! It is good to get thoughts under control. I love the second verse. Though divided up, bleeds together as in: seek creation of boundless thoughts. Congratulations!
