It slides from my hands this slippery thing called now
my attention a thousand and one places but here
the moment, so easily missed
*
Rein in those horses of thought
galloping free over the vast open plains of my mind
Let me mount just one sturdy steed to lead the herd
steady, strong and responsive
every nuance felt
*
We breathe in time and move as one
toward the watering hole
where we will drink
*

fab...u..lous!
Beautiful poem! My favorite part is the image of this united steed arriving at a watering hole to drink...There is a quote from Adyashanti that comes to mind. "Most people give their attention to what they don't like. Put your attention on what you love."
Thanks Susannah! Colleen
