Inspired Poem

A quiet mind, no god to find,
Just present moments, soft and kind.
No highs to chase, no lows to dread,
A peaceful knowing, gently spread.

Each breath, a world, both clear 'n bright,
Seeing things as they are, with light.
No judgment's sting, no anxious plea,
Just being here, is truly me.

This compassion, this steady grace,
Unveils my true and inner face.
No need to search, no need to roam,
This quiet peace, my truest home.
