Treasure in disguise
I picked one after another and
none of them were sincerely true to their promise:
The First had fallen apart as soon as I touched it.
The Second was covered in slimy paste.
And it didn’t matter how much I polished the Third,
It never sparkled or had a shine.
I’d have to dig deep to find the one that brightens up the day,
fills the heart with joy and gifts the colours in the rainbow.
As I pondered over my quest to find the GOOD one,
it dawned on me that the treasure I am seeking,
is not external to me, it resides within myself
and has been waiting to be unearthed.
So I got to work.

Buzzing mind

On a sightless walk, minding my thoughts own plight.
Stopped short in my tracks by yellow flowering delight!
Spotting the bees and hearing their humming sound.
my mood starts lifting while they buzz around.
Instantly I stop drooling over my mindless head spin.
Forgetting all worries as a smile appears on my chin.

LOST + FOUND
I am guided by a dog that’s blind.
He has no eyes to see.
I am wondering what will I find,
and if his path will set me free?
With his nose he sniffs his way around,
navigating darkness as if there was only light,
revealing a truth that needed to be found:
In his heart it’s LOVE that gives him sight.
