Autumn Bliss

A huge tree, in autumn completely bare
In my balcony, I relax and stare

It represents to me, an empty mind
One, only on salvation we can find

No possession, thoughts, attachments, feelings
Utterly devoid of earthly dealings

All alone, an epitome of calm
Blissful enjoyment, without any qualm

I deeply desire to become like it,
In the midst of world but away from it
