My Mind is a host where
myriads of thoughts
come knocking on the door,
like the seasons visit nature,
like the waves come rushing to the shore...
For a brief transient sojourn
Some are simple, some complex,
Some silent, some bring chaos along,
Some are inspiring, some illuminating
Some alluring, some boring
But some are hazardous,
meant only to take over the home,
They come disguised in a beautiful attire,
just to sow seeds of doubt,
trying to make me feel low,
By shattering my beliefs,
to take hold of mind to reign over it
leading me astray, to throw me
in the darkest abyss of despair,
but fortunately my mind is like lotus
It has learned the art of detachment
From these clingy thoughts,
like a zen it receives and
takes care of them,
listens to them and when
time comes bids them farewell, or
when need arises change its gestalt like sky,
but my mind always stays rooted
Without wavering,
Whilst the thoughts come and go
Never staying just like
The fleeting clouds...
