I couldnt talk about it so I wrote a poem
One, two, three, four, five.
Close eyes
Deep breath
Mind’s silent now.
One, two, three, four, five.
Open eyes
Grass
Fabric
Tree
Bird
Sour
Grounded now.
One, two, three, four, five.
Close eyes
Deep breath
Try again tomorrow.

Mindfully Enjoying the Moment
When mind is in the moment, thoughtlessness prevails"
~
Keep your mind away from thoughts that rebound
Hear the mesmerizing melodic music of surround
Bask in the bewitching beauteous objects that astound
Sense all the sensations you skin has sensed around
Inhale the myriad magnetic fragrances floating around
Experience boundless bounteous bliss of God abound
Mindfulness leads to cessation
Of thoughts, the causation
Of our

Mind Mind Mindfully
If we can mind our mind, in fact if we don't mind our mind, ignore it for wandering mindlessly to non-existent places, we would be able to mindfully mind our mind and mindfully do our task, we would have perfectly perfected mindfulness.
Mind will mind if we don't mind about mind but we have to

Mindfully
Prize pure peaks
Script sound speak
Plot pure play
Dance dream day
Craft calm cheer
Niche notes near
Wise words will
Taste true thrills
Glimpse grand good
Make mind mood
Heap high hopes
Set sweet scope
Live love loud
Bright brave bout
Ask apt art
Seek self start
Feed fond fest
Quaint ***** quest
Dance deep dream
Sire soft streams
Walk warm ways
Draft deep day
Face free fall
Choice charms call
Time tells tales
Aid apt ale

Mindfully Encaged
From the vines of a broken family I arose.
Too much time on my hands.
The smell of revenge on my clothes.
The friends I once counted abundantly,
Turned to foes.
And the shallow sense
Of emptiness confronted me.
A hallway of temptation lay
Right in front of me.
Each room to portray a blurry memory
That still haunted me.
Locked

Mindfully
Notes nurture name
Seek sublime same
Be beyond blame
Calm choice charms cheer
Nature niche near
Fright freeze-frames fear
Meet mindful maze
Dream deeper daze
Crash cuddles craze
Weary words while
Sweet silence styles
Such succinct smiles
Move mental mist
Glimpse gracious gist
Live laughter lists
Feel flaming fire
Sad story sires
Poignant prompt pyre
Joy jump starts jest
Feisty frame fest
Zone zooming zest
Live lovely lot
Pick pretty plots
Thrill tensile thought
Brace blooming beach
Rhyme rooming reach

Mindfully Minding My Mind
The quiet of the late afternoon sun
Is all that I wanted to hear.
The rays casting shadows in the room
Is all that I wanted to see.
Watching the daylight move around the walls
Eased the tension and stress in me.
A few moments to gather my thoughts
Time, so precious, so dear.
Comfortably sitting here
Relaxation drains me of life's fears
Just a

Poise Mindfully 2
Start with your heart
Peace paints sure art
Seek to know play
Tact aligns say
Come to know flow
In light that shows
Stillness firms cheer
Fond love draws near

Poise Mindfully
Be mindful now
Let poise endow
Come let us see
How peace sets free
Be one with joy
Let love employ
Come to know ease
Start with calm peace
