Field of Reeds

emotion's tides
both rise and fall
still there's a place
within us all

a summer's meadow
a field of reeds
an ethereal mind
beyond our needs

beyond our bodies
beyond our thought
beyond beyond
within and caught

by consciousness
while breathing in
and out and in
and out and in

happiness comes
then fades away
still there's a place
where we can stay

a summer's meadow
a field of reeds
an ethereal mind
where all our needs

evaporate
they disappear
as we approach
as we come near
