Meditation 101 Poem by RIC BASTASA

a leaf is falling from the sky
twirling and twirling down to earth.

in the stillness of the clear pond
a rainbow fish is floating

in the middle of a green valley
a spotted cow is grazing peacefully

a fledgling is coming out of the nest
wondering how is it to fly for the first time

a baby boy is crawling on the floor
uttering the first word for mama

tonighti close my eyes as i sit
on the grass under the million stars.
