| A Soft and Gentle Light ... Let It Be ... A Soft and Gentle Reminder -- February 2020, Kailua, HI, iPhone 11 Pro |
A Soft and Gentle Reminder
In honor of Thich Nhat Hanh
I set up a meditation bell
Using his Plum Village app
Such that, every so often
It rings its soft and gentle chime
To bring me back to the present moment
Actually, it doesn’t bring me back
It softly, and gently, reminds me
Such that I may choose
To stop and to breathe and to Be
Soft and gentle, mindful and present
Magically transported to the Now
To witness that alchemic change
From a contracted and tense ego
To something soft and gentle, in an instant
It's really quite magical
Some might even say, miraculous
And here’s another benefit
I'm finding it quite astonishing
Just how fast my life is flowing past me
When I’m not fully present
So how would you like to spend
Your one luminous Life?
Would you like a soft and gentle reminder?
