In a life that is full of chaos I seek Zen,
to Buddhism and Taoism for insight to this life;
I do yoga in the morning and then,
meditate especially in times of strife.
Hoping to pass from my prison into the light,
from ignorance and negativity and fright;
it is a daily maze and fight.
To enlightenment is is an endless path,
and so hard when life is full of wrath;
but what helps is a scented candle and a bath.
I like to chant a song,
rather than a sound, perhaps this is wrong;
but the peace I get is very strong.
Sometimes I hold a pretty flower,
for what is minutes but somehow feels like an hour;
meditation has a lot of power.
Contemplation in meditation is not a prayer with an amen
sometimes, what is revealed is like a knife;
but it does bring me mindfulness for my pen,
yes, Zen is good in times of confusion and of rife.
