Zen

We have a yen for zen, for we are a poet, choosing to sing our song without inhibition, taking mankind along. We have a yen for zen, so follow not the herd but carve our path through life, moment to moment thus, joyous, aglow, bliss rife. We have a yen for zen, free from fear and desire, with malice towards none, acceptant and at peace, knowing we all are one. We have a yen for zen, so abide in silence, connected to our soul, dispersing love and light, here in our earth life role. 12-May-2023 __________ Writing Challenge - 'Z' Words Poetry Contest Sponsor: Constance La France
