In the heart of chaos
This still pond,
Reflecting moonlight
Serenely beyond.
A single stone
Artfully placed,
Sets ripples of peace
In gentle cascades.
The mind and water
Both love stillness,
So leave behind
The noise and mess
For quietude
Where wisdom resides,
A deep well of strength
As the spirit confides.
Cultivate
Your stillness within,
Sanctuary of peace
Then the soul can begin
To blossom and grow,
Your flowers in bloom,
All in the peace
Of your spirit's own room.
