! ! ! ! ! In A State Of Zen! ! ! ! !

Rating: 5.0


Children chuckle
As paper boats
Float in
Puddles.



Tap dance of
Rain
Makes
My hearts leap…


Birds
Screeching at
Midnight
In the city.


A small town
Girl
Lost in
Neon lights
Searches for
Night sky.


Trees
Dressed in
New leaves.


A woman
Dozes at noon
Beside
An empty
Water bottle.


Tree trunk
Despite storm
Srands firm.

Who knows
Heart is crying,
without sound.

The inner picture of being in a state of Zen has been portrayed beautifully by inside concord. Originally Zen, a school of Bhuddhism developed in China later in Japan that emphasizes enlightenment through meditation and insight. It differs from Mahayama Bhuddhism originating in India. A thoughtful contemplation towards peace is established by the pillars of meditation and deep insight of mundane life.........10/10. Best Regards Naseer
