Meditation on a Simple Act


Lying in the boat

meditating beneath the blue sky

simplicity in life occurred to me

as I closed my eyes


Just being

feeling a breeze touch my skin

inner peace encompasses me

the veil is thin


Sounds of the ripples

hearing a fish jump

crickets are singing

floating into a stump


Within the peace

an inner voice speaks

gratitude flows

no longer weak


Living in this moment

it will never come again

the simple act of being

never wears thin

  1. There is something about being on, or near, the water that is so…..ah, relaxing. This is lovely.

  2. I close my eyes and can feel it too. Thank you for sharing your blue with our challenge, Debbie. 🙂
