Mindfulness

Hobthrush Isle off Lindisfarne

Mindfulness

The Island teaches attention

To the nature of passing time;

The Island teaches rhythm

Ocean’s ebb and flow:

The Island teaches patience

And learning in the waiting;

The Island teaches presence

Stillness in the landscape:

The Island teaches faith

God’s finger on your pulse:

The Island teaches life

And death.

 

The Island teaches

It is not you who decides.
