Oh the joy of just beingnot needing to define or decide
just to breathe and see things
from a peaceful state of mind


to look up at the display of stars
and the heavenly constellations on high
without needing to know their reasons
just to accept their existence in space and time


oh the gift of being
to not plan or control the way
just to accept the wonder
of being alive each day


to go with the flow
and let the soul show
the Spirit of seeing
behind Buddha’s smile


and breathe in the beauty present
in the gift of just one flower
to rest in the garden as Gods tenet
and stop trying for a limitless while


to dwell in the heart
and take a break from the mind
to allow yourself to be part
of the great mystery of life


and say thank you
for the grace of healing
not doing too much is so freeing
oh to accept the gift of just being
