this garden of mind
seemingly chaotic
thought seeds jumble together
Which ones will take root
and reach for the light?
No apparent order or cultivation
What allows a thought seed to flourish?
A deep bed
in which to set deep roots
Love soaking through
to the core of the seed
Space and light
A gardener delicately prunes and
abundantly hacks back
removing dead wood
clearing space
for fresh new seeds
Awareness
careful attention
is the gardener
Spring-cleaning the mind
using natural energy
as the sap rises
To clear a path through
To stop regurgitating old stories
Listening for what is new.
