Serenity

I care but do not mind which Goddess you hail

There is not one God only but many to cherish

To choose as long as you are honest and serene


I would rule out science and money as my altar

But sit quietly in the garden and marvel at nature


Throw in a bit of philosophy in the eclectic mix

Ask the Buddha in you what is the right path


Meditate and reflect on the wonders of a quiet world

A lotus flower or meaningful pendant and a mantra maybe

Spirituality is a reflection of prisms in doing your best

Thank you Line. I wrote the poem very quickly. Maybe that means I am very, very slowly getting there ...

Thank you. I need all calming praise that comes my way. Tai and I are in the very middle of moving from South Africa to Spain and it is (quite pleasantly) hectic ...
