Mindfulness II

Mindfulness , at its best,
Brings all your senses to the test.
Allows you to realize,
Acuity of  senses do materialize.
Being in the here and now,
Is what is needed,
Awareness helps ,
When it is heeded.
To be the sound, the scent or pain
to be the taste or vision, deign.
A footfall on a dry autumn leaf,
gentle breeze tinkles the windchime.... brief.
The whirrr of distant traffic, a blast of a horn
the beating of your heart, a new sound is born.
Mindfully aware you are of your surrounding,
All your senses, now in acuity abounding.
