Striving and pushing seems crazed
Suddenly awake from a daze
Wherever mind was pushing to go
Abundantly clear you already know
No place to get to why not be still
Deep in your center find your strong will
From that place of quiet all will emerge
Clear space is present after the purge
Much of life we move frantically about
Demanding expecting ranting shout
Missing pure blessing of our sacred being
Crashing through lives without ever seeing
If we are lucky smart and aware
We come to realize we’re already there
No place to go to no mountain to climb
Relax slide into your next sacred rhyme
Stay centered within your sphere
Wisdom gets you to your next there
Bask in the reverie of your arrival
Nowhere to go nothing to strive for
Pure simple friends to the flowers
Gentle steadfast hours upon hours
Confident radiant receiving clean
Pleasures of a magnificent dream
What if you were already where you have been striving for and had all you need?
If you could just be a human “being” how would your life be different?
