Burning pan plastic- be unmindful?

Gritty Bubbles

Cushion, blanket- small change
Feet, seat- minor pain

Breathing focus- bubbly grit
Body focus- thoughts interrupt
Joy came, warming smile
Silver breath- small hint

Gritty Bubbles- just sit

Splendid Soil

Still Water early, before sunrise

Peaceful breathing, body relaxed
Outside fades- imminently distant

Silver white power inhaled- tarnished exhale
Crocodile eye- trail leads deep

Uncovering rich soil
Cultivating Mindfulness

Early Late


Rise shining, tea - gone
Hurry towards Mindfulness- Conflicting purposes

Still Water- four plus one
Time settled, breath plain, eyes closed
Bodily doubt pervades start- minor distractions

Walking, corners weird

Desire more, Desire less- just more

Mixed

Sweet thoughts help intended- thoughts
Intrude, obscure, distract
Basic breath- object sought

Odd

Backwards seeking basics- Hints

Body sensations, sweet thoughts- mixed
Acceptance

Monday, February 9, 2009

Really Monday

Odd eyes
Odd breathing
Odd mindfulness
Odd sensations
Odd peace
Odd 

Acceptance, appreciation, soothing- ready


Parked Meditation


Water flow
Passenger seat
Feet, legs- angled
Peaceful

Cars pass
Roll away
Back near- walking run

Smooth Rocky

Difficult path, peaceful detour
Drawn forward, back, anywhere else
Remain steady breathing- focused
Unmoving- become stone
Waves, time- loosening
Balance, awareness unsteady

Peaceful path- one step, another

Friday, February 6, 2009

Sitting

Distances immense infinitely small
Wandering focus mindfully sent
Time forever present set
Deep hindsight realizations hinted

Bounced off ending early- Again, Again
Acceptance understood- instances

Questions released timelessness arrives

Thursday, February 5, 2009

Realize

Powerful feeling- emotion, thought
Mindfulness reveals completely

Posture possibilities open anew
Feet fine, back head back
Adjustment many- eyes high view
Noticing newness lightly

Peaceful joy

Before Dawn

Early waking- bouncing intention
Joyfully bitter tea, no coat
Timeless drive- arrive on time

Mindfulness- breathing relaxed, body focus 
Ending pain- back, legs, hips
Walking, reading mindfulness increases

Late running ending- mindfulness drifting

Burmese

Numbered numberless breaths pass
Feet comfortable- Burmese shape
Peaceful joy- interrupted softly
Mindful eye focus wandered

Minimountain miles high
Historic focus questions where, when, why

Here, now- why answered question

Wandering Feet


Position location feeling concern
Moving trying new sitting- not found

Joyful peace bouncing- touches
Thoughts intrude

Feet, feet , feet , position, position, feet,  position
Thinking outliers

Joyful peace being complete

Half and half

WMC first half joyful peace- easy find
Walking meditation- not hitting a stride
WMC second half- Mr. Late Mover arrived
Movement continuously-  distracting struggle
Acceptance looming- hidden nearby

Mindfulness opportunities throughout the day
Peaceful embrace of anger and dispair
