Tango dancing last evening 

Latte this morning 

One would think I lived in 

     Paradise 

     Here . . .

Very scary and invasive 

Medical test coming up 

And how 

To pay for it ???

Paradise is balanced by 

     Other things 

So they say 

     Is the way -

Taoists believe 

That the center of things

Is the best place 

To be 

But the winds of change 

Blow a gale 

Sometimes 

So to bend like 

Bamboo

And not to break

Would be the thing 

To do 

Within the moment 

Is contained 

The flitting butterfly 

The ocean breeze 

The lack of things 

To do 

Today 

The seasons change 

Autumn

Is just 

Beginning here 

(Gotta get the old heater fixed) 

But I must remember this 

This moment 

This way of being 

Has more to recommend it 

Than most
