Poem Mar 20th 2014

Thoughts from a Conversation about Happiness
I don’t need
fine clothes
a good home
a fast car
or lots of food.
Happiness
comes from
your state of mind
everything else is derived
he said
with a smile.

One Gardener
Carrying bushes along
whistling a song
as he gets on
the subway.
Going to plant them today
as a surprise
and make someone's day.

Poem Mar 18th 2014

This is a poem which I originally wrote in 1999 and I found it again today. I have decided to publish it today. It also appears on the Lovin the Asylum Blog

http://lovintheasylum.wordpress.com

Doors
Is it really easy

when one is feeling queasy?
Choices are not so simple.
One spirit,but many paths
each equally right;
laden with uncertainity,
and curiousity.
The doors remain open
yet one keeps on hoping
for some sign
to signify the truth.
Barring help from above
One must seek it alone
then all victories,
and defeats, gains and losses
are your own.
Trying and troubling as a Zen Koan.
You are the riddle,
and the resolution.
© BJG (Blair Gaulton) Aug 1999

Poem Mar 17th 2014

Learning Lines
Learning lines
make you pine
for freedom of action
until you master them
feeling contracted
in your action.

Travelling

Hi Everyone
Over the next few days I will be travelling.  I am unsure, if where I will be, will have Internet access.
If not them my poems will return sometime late on Sunday Mar 10th. However, if there is access, the poems will come every day.

Best Wishes and Warmest Regards
Blair

Poem Mar 5th 2014

The Tale of the Unknown Unicorn
The unknown unicorn
does more than fly
through the sky
spreading wishes
warmth while flying by
sometimes
delivers pizzas
during spare time
keeping hope alive
until the food arrives.

Standing around

some running
as if they're rowing
in a race
see the look
on other's faces
an impression
that they are in the wrong place.
