The Buttermilk Maestro

I have decided to live on buttermilk.
It contains all the ingredients
to sustain a happy and productive life.
No more worrying about the next meal.
I can spend more time seeking perfection-
picking flowers and counting stars.
I can find my place in the universe,
pondering existence,
the meaning of love,
how death is a part of life,
who God really is.
I can then be a maestro poet
and write words of a contended and complete life.
Yes, I will live on buttermilk
and love my cows every day!

Have been ill, hence the late response. But finally thank you for a very nice comment.
