The Great Teacher

I spend my days 
busy 
searching for wisdom 
seeking the way 

Constantly overlooking 
the great master 
who lives in my own home 

Who follows the Tao 
better than my own dog? 
She sleeps when she is tired 
plays when she is energetic 
she has no worries of the future 
no regrets of the past 
living only in the now

How wise and content she looks 
perched 
in silent meditation 
beside me
