Learn to Be Still
sometimes the best words
are no words
letting the world speak its piece
not talking over it with fears
nor marring it by marking it
adding nothing to what’s given
remaining content

Thanks for sharing this Mike. I do not want to add my words to what you spoke but your words echo the thoughts that have been following me this week.
You’re not turning all Zen on me, are you Mike? I’d surely miss your snarky political poems!
Love the line “not marring it by marking it”
The political stuff is wearing me out, but there will be a few of those this month. Zen’s a little less wear and tear on the mind.
That’s true. But then there is Trump….
I agree with Kathleen! Great work!
