This Perfect Day
(New to the series, Cannabis and Creative Cognition. Ref: Leafly West Coast Sour Diesel)
Just contemplate
each perfect day:
accepting
all it gives.
Let your thought
roll thoroughly over
bumps, or slights,
hatefulness,
and stupidity.
Hear the singing
in the air:
looking through
the lens of love,
colours seem much brighter.
Let the splash of joy
cleanse your heart
making sorrow
a dimming memory.
Throb with the vibration
of unknown realms,
the mystery
that is beauty.
Let your senses blossom,
and your spirit soar,
as horizons expand
neverending;
Mandelbrot rules supreme.
Just contemplate
each perfect day:
embrace the here and now,
alert to all
within our sphere,
as well as all beyond.
No gods dancing
across an angry sky:
only peace, and you, and I.

The Ancient Hippie
Welcome, and Namaste
Greetings fellow travellers,
For you American friends visiting, you will notice that this old Canadian uses Canadian English in this blog: kindly bear with me. As I blog primarily on subjects that are vitally interesting to me, I appreciate all feedback.
As I tend to be a bit of a language usage freak, I will, as required, edit obscenity and rude comments. That said, I welcome your opinions and discussion.
May your Dharma be clear
Peace
"If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended:
That you have but slumb'red here,
While these visions did appear."
Puck’s epilogue to A Midsummer Night’s Dream
