Mindful Moments
Flood of last light
Dusk abruptly settles;
Weary day defaults
Cicadas start
Their somnolent song;
Sunset serenade
July rains hurl
Fields wet with gravy;
Frogs making merry
Croaking highlights
Simple harmonic motions;
Pendulum clockwork
Bedtime story:
I tell a tale of me;
Dream-o-Land retreats
Now I go to sleep
Dear Lord I pray:
To live another day
Mindful of vain needs
I fly to foreign skies;
Sigh within a dream
A tale of me
I see the glimpse;
Paradise must wait
Verse echoes sum
My simple ecstasy;
To sing a song of rhymes
Vivid lullabies
Attain a symphony;
Mindful moments greet
Our drama here indeed
To live and love and dance;
Elope with fantasy
Let truth and grace
Abide with love;
In simple melody
My sleepy moments
Fly away fast;
Whispers come to be
