A Spiritual Life

In the garden of the mind, we sow
Seeds of wisdom, love, and peace to grow
Tending thoughts like delicate flowers
Nurturing compassion with mindful hours

While the world outside rushes by
We turn within, where true wealth lies
Cultivating kindness, joy, and grace
In this inner, sacred space

Material pursuits may tempt and call
But the spirit's garden contains it all
Here, in silence, truth unfolds
As the heart's pure essence it beholds

A life of spirit, rich and deep
Is the harvest we ultimately reap
From seeds of practice, day by day
We bloom along the Middle Way
