Poetry by Cheri Fry

Tranquil and serene

Tranquil and serene
lotus graces in muddy pools
while mediator
miles away
chants
om
to the beat of the Dalai Lama's heart

Tranquil and serene
the days float endlessly by
in non attachment
emotions come
and they go
all is still
inner strength
delivers calm

Tranquil and serene
living
amidst the chaos and concern
of everyday life
striving and stretching
maxed out
until
Nirvana
