Do not go to the garden...

“Do not go to the garden of flowers!
O friend! go not there;
In your body is the garden of flowers.
Take your seat on the thousand petals of the
lotus, and there gaze on the infinite beauty.”
~Kabir


do not go to the garden
to find the very sweetness
born of your own soul

while sitting purely
still, allowing quietude
it's natural place

all the sweet flowers
within the cosmos emerge,
brightening all things
