Galloping elephants again!
Such agitation,
Such fear, such doubt,
What’s this all about?
Better not to ask
I think,
As I don’t think
I will ever figure it out,
Better to let the elephants
Pass through,
Unimpeded
And the mind relaxed a little,
Remembering
The benevolence of the elephants
That they do not
Mean to cause trouble
And, are in fact
Quite unaware
Of the difficulties
They bring to the forest,
Directing compassion
Towards the elephants
And the forest
And the trees,
Slowly, very slowly
The mind is soothed
And quiet ensues,
As the shadows lengthen,
The frenzied energy
Is replaced by bliss,
Which spreads throughout,
Bringing peace and renewal.
