Zazen

Listen to poem:
My head is calm My space is zen I glide and I meander Manoeuver in a psychic hovercraft I’m in my private bubble Impervious to noise around me Blissfully cut off from outsiders Their bitter words are hollow They're out there l'm in here Water off a duck’s back AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on January 28, 2020 for contest STRAND CHOICE 9 sponsored by BRIAN STRAND - Honorable Mention Posted on January 21, 2020

Oh, I LOVE when I can get to that safe-bubble-space in my head... not very often, but blissful when it happens! Another FAV for me! ;)

Yes, one must maintain her center amidst the words of the world. Yours in zen mediation, mine in prayer. Blessings, dear poet.
