Zen Life

I dig daily and deep seeking an answer

To the question about what am I doing in life.

The answer is elusive, yet can't give up.

I look at what others do, ordinarily living their life

That is no consolation, don't feel elation.

I immerse in the here and now

Mind is on a leash, I keep somehow.

Equanimity in the daily life, no big highs or lows

At the end of the day grateful to life I take a bow.

A being lives only in the present

Consider it as a gift, worth every cent.

Past is pointless, future may be fruitless

Zen of life, if one gets it, rues less and less.
