This Amazingly Present Moment Feeling
I sit on a green mossy rock on the seashore
Feet planted firmly on to the warm granules sand
Feeling the grains slipping between my toes
Hearing the waves roar in to shore
And the wind blow
Rustling past me in refreshing sweeps
While watching the sea so amazing
As the waves roll in and out
Seeing the surf and the seaweed tumbling in the waves
And as the waves roll out
The stones roll back as if chasing back to the sea
As though that's where they belong
Almost scared to be exposed.
Suddenly out of the corner of my eye
From the edge of my tranquil and still mind
A dog races headlong
Races headstrong into the surf
And leaps and bounds and splashes
Before racing out again, manic and insane
I can't help but smile and chuckle
Before returning to my conscious time
Aware of everything but in a mindful state
Looking out to where the blue sky hits the sea
On this picturesque horizon and landscape
Breathing in the sea air and almost tasting the salt
And feeling that nothing here and now can take away
From the resplendence of this present now moment
This wonderful moment on the beach
Yet on the edge of conscious living and life
Aware and connected to everything that exists
Becoming one with all.
