LESSON IN A CUP

LESSON IN A CUP

.

.


I can tell time by the warmth of my tea


I want to drink it when it's just right


If my attention wanders the tea grows cold


As day passes into night


If I'm in the moment my attention is present


I can drink the tea when it's just warm


It's the same with my life path, I must pay attention


To avoid things that might bring harm


Thoughts are like an ancient wood


Full of prickers and tangled vines


We must not get lost in our pathless minds


We must not miss all the signs
