A Poem: Happiness is When You Feel Nothing

Happiness is when you don't feel

any pain, itch, or fear

when you have

no yarning, regret, or attachment

no deadline threatening

Happiness is when you want nothing

because you are sure you already have everything

Happiness is when you sit alone

but not feel lonely

Happiness is when you light a cigar

but in no hurry to puff

Like a cat stretching its body

after a big meal

What is there to do

or what not to

if there is anything

A pond of still water under the sun

clouds floating
