A short simple poem about greater awareness and being present in the moment versus materialistic tendencies.
gaining is impossible
how can awareness gain?
awareness can drop
the preoccupation with gaining
and will experience
a fuller greater awareness
awareness can drop
the preoccupation with gaining
through understanding
that nothing is ever gained
that awareness is all there is
and “having” is an illusion
do you pump your own heart?
did you decide to be born?
we are awareness only
we watch ourselves grow
into trees, bees, leaves,
snow, mountains,
and summer breezes
ownership
all you can ever own
is your own enjoyment
in the present moment
