5/8/25 Be still and Listen to the Tetanus cc10/1/18

Be still and

Listen to the

Tetanus

I meditate and sit real Still

And practice using  all my will

As I quiet my mind the more I hear

The high-pitched noise that roars in my ear

Most of the time I can ignore it

But when I'm tired it takes grit

To try to stay peaceful and grateful

And remember it's annoying but never fail

Millions suffer much more than some noise

I'll count my blessings and try to live with poise

Be still and

Listen to the

Tetanus

Learn to be playful

About what is most

Important to you

I was always so serious

It made me delirious

As the decades flew by

I started wondering why

Now it has become clear

To be of good cheer

Because soon I'll be dead

With nothing to dread

Learn to be playful

About what is most

Important to you

4/12/25 Overwhelmed Is a byproduct Of not having a Plan cc10/4/18

Overwhelmed

Is a byproduct 

Of not having a

Plan

There so much to do

I'll never get through

The list keeps getting longer

And I am not any stronger

Can I find some way out

There is only one route

I'll create a clear plan

Then do all that I can 

To keep it moving in that direction

 Always ready for the next correction

Overwhelmed

Is a byproduct 

Of not having a

Plan

4/6/25 Let the Mystery be cc 7/2918

Let the 

Mystery be

Simple joys and homespun pleasures

Love and kindness are the measures

A brief visit to a tiny sphere

Some laughs some tears we disappear

What's going on

Who can till

Some say heaven

Others the hell

Whichever it is the best we can do

Is to be kind and loving until we're through

Let the 

Mystery be

Saver the 

Existing inconvenience

Conditions

The path to freedom is steep and rough

But that makes me resilient and tough

Hard becomes easy when I do it enough

Or

Wine and complain tell all of my trouble

Tell them how life is nothing that struggle

And how all my dreams burst like a bubble

Or

I'll study and practice create some great skill

Set my course so it's always up hill

Always remember I'm building my will

Saver the

Existing inconvenience

Conditions
