Heartbeat. Mindfulness. One on One……

One of the Buddha’s Five Rememberances.

‘All that is dear to me and everything I love are of the nature to change. There is no way to escape being separated from them’.

THE MUSIC.

A rhythmic musical Mantra?

An awaiting softly sung made up melody awaiting future words?

Or

Nothing? Just close my eyes and listen……

Breathe deeply………..Slowly.

MUSIC WRITTEN AND PLAYED BY GRAY SUMMERS.

MINDFULNESS.

Your outside is not seen

By anyone else outside,

Looking in.

Because you are inside within a place

A palace

That breathes isolating serenity.

Your inside feels awed by the possibility

Of a perfect moment in time

When you are using

Your mindful brain.

It’s bliss.

Full on non-thinking.

Then?

A crack of shimmering interruption.

Silvery, tantalising lights.

Unwanted thought.

Tempting.

Should I chase this plethora of silvery threads

To find where they could take me?

No.

Do not break perfection on a whim.

They shimmer again.

A gain!

No.

Disaster.

But there they are.

There it is.

Snowflake, snowfall, translucent and beautifully silvery white.

Like shimmering liquid alabaster.

Dream thought

Impossible not to chase

Or Touch.

Its threads akin to grimoire inclusions.

A chance taken?

Perchance to fall?

Perchance to fail?

‘Obviously, no.

Perchance to dream’, they whisper.

Tendril threads

Dance with glee.

Not sinisterly.

But in sincerity.

Singing soft swished swirling notes

And waiting patiently.

Hoping. Probing.

Using their own sweeping

Ethereal sung dream.

Mind inside pushes aside.

Ignoring the outcomes.

Envisaging

By not looking

Not listening

At all.

The Mind already knows.

That the inner soul, when once settled,

Provides its own magical spell.
