Unseeking Seeker Poet Rhyme

Simple Simon

Eat when hungry
Sleep when sleepy

Not simple 
With thoughts nimble

Go where we expand in joy
Forsaking egoic ploy

Is there an inhibition or limitation
To flow thus in unending elation

Live simply
Act humbly

Better a rebel, a nerd
Than a blind follower of the herd

Can we
Do we
Are we

Darlene De Beaulieu August 12, 2020 at 10:27 AM Hello Unseeking Seeker, very clever. Enjoy your day my friend. Unseeking Seeker August 11, 2020 at 9:20 PM Happy you enjoyed! It is actually a poetic interpretation of one of the verses of Vijnana Bhairava Tantra!

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart August 11, 2020 at 9:30 AM Wise words. Brings to mind “freedom from or freedom to”. Great write! Unseeking Seeker August 11, 2020 at 9:19 PM Thanks Pigeon!

Erin Cowart August 11, 2020 at 6:35 AM It is true that most of us probably need to question the definition of freedom that has been taught to us our whole lives. I appreciate that sentiment in this poem. Unseeking Seeker August 11, 2020 at 8:26 AM :)
