There's nothing like a chair
beneath a mango tree to
watch teenagers run and
kick soccer ball into goal.

There's nothing like an evening stroll
to relax in a peaceful countryside and
let pleasant thoughts linger.

There's nothing like a sip from a cup
of strong brew, unsweetened, to
taste true fragrance of beans.

There's nothing like emptiness
to float in a world of imagery
with wings unfurled, eyes closed,
in a moment of ecstasy.

There's nothing like forgetfulness
of whom you are; where you were
0r where you are headed.
Just vegetate.
