Mindless Moments
Life is a saga of suffering
Selfishness stings
Harsh words hurt
Past pains pounds
Mind is miserable
Thoughts torment
Tears take a toll on you
Peace is lost
But life must be lead
Tasks to be finished
Crying hampers health,
How to be happy?
I finally found a simple solution
Complete concentration
At the task in front
Mind and senses at the moment
Observing, feeling, enjoying
No thoughts, no pain
Calmness, joy and bliss
Past is dead like previous births
Future an illusion
This moment in front
Waiting to be lived, enjoyed
To allow it to slip away in thoughts
Stupidity
Serving no purpose
A wonderful world waiting to be enjoyed
Enjoying it by living every moment fully
Permeates peace
Promotes joy.
