Life, any life,
Unique and fragile.
A single drop of dew
Under the sun.

Life, any life,
A rare accident,
A breaking wave,
A sudden flash.

Life, any life,
Blown away forever
Like a tiny poem
Written in the sand.

Life, any life,
Sacred in it’s brevity.
A rare jewel,
A lonely star.

Stepping into night,
Sleep embraces me.
Senses waver,
Darkness comes.

Next life may be better.
Tomorrow might be next life.
Do we know?

Faces passing,
People moving,
A thousand stories
Strolling by.

Each one a drop of life,
Flowing down a river,
To the sea

Drowsiness
Poisons the mind,
Luring it softly
Into numbness.

Kyosaku strikes.

Breathe in,
Breathe out,
Gently but firmly
Return to now.

The sun rises,
Inviting me to be
Simply me.

Morning thoughts
Run like wildfire.
The mind wanders,
Never calm.

Thousand jewels
Shining brightly,
I drift away
From here and now.

Breath flows in,
Thoughts dissolve.
Breath flows out,
I let go.

Smell of cooking,
In the morning air,
Fills my day
With love.

Strange thoughts,
From a stray mind,
Running wildly
In my head.

Sounds and figures,
Form dissolve,
I simply wish,
For silence.

(200th post, I guess I should celebrate or something )

Running
By the pale moonlight,
Under a star-filled sky,
Alone.

Mind and breath,
Step follows step.
Clear mind running
Into dawn.

Breath flows, slowly.
Mind is calmed.
I feel daylight
In my heart.

Life goes quickly,
A simple flash.
I feel the wonder,
Of being alive.
