Don’t seek the beyond
contentment’s always near by
stop, turn, and observe

Don’t seek the beyond
contentment’s always near by
stop, turn, and observe
Happy, sad, angry
repeat to realise it
what life is for you

Photo: Slide Mantra, a monument in the Bayfront Park in Miami. Made by American sculptor Isamu Noguchi for the Venice Biennale in 1986. The marble sculpture was installed in Miami in 1991 and remained intact until 2005 when Hurricane Wilma damaged it. It has since been resorted.
Seeing fresh fruit ripe
the fruits of early rising
nature flowering

To traverse tireless
mile after mile after mile
to hear the soul speak
All straight paths heading
unperturbed, ever boring
as life is a train

Miami has a free public transit system called the Metromover. Although a slow mode of transport, hundreds of locals take the Metromover across the city every day. Each car/coach can accommodate about 30 people and it has no seats. Almost all Metromovers I saw had only 2 cars, but there were a few single ones as well.
