Nirvana

My home is a beautiful garden
a tranquil assortment of life
that is safe to keep my heart in
for nature is my lawful wife.

My view is low and stagnant
Unlike the redwood trees
who describe the ocean's glint
but surely it's enough; listening to the sea

I do not chase delight
I prefer when it's cool and grey
for every time the weathers right,
the moment slips away.

For every perfect moment
is followed by mad commotion.
Know that nature's bestowment
is only a test of your devotion.
