Nature scene - Zen poems on meditation and mindfulness

ZEN POEMS: Meditation, mindfulness, realization and freedom

Last updated: November 1st, 2018

Nothing Between Us

I am not you
and you are not me
and I needn’t go
through you
to find myself
because of where we both
eternally emerge from

Meditation and Mindfulness

in deep meditation
all boundaries drop
awareness is all
wholeness, blissin utter mindfulness
unbridled awareness
beholds, appreciates
witnesses, IS love lovingly loves
the lover and the loved

Trappings and What Matters

the illusion of travel
the illusion of change
the illusion of evolution
how easily
we get busy
how easily
we confuse ourselves
with the temporary,
identifying with the trappings,
with nature’s lovely recipes
for form and space,
forgetting our eternity
