Nurture a blank mind

Blank mind
No ideas to find
Crammed canvas with nothing to fill
Empty pot on a window sill

But instead of wondering what to do
You've got plenty of thoughts up there to use
All you need is to put the seed in soil
Then water, sunlight and the rest is no trouble

You put it back on the window sill in your room
Then a few weeks later a rose has bloomed
Or paint over the old in which you hadn't tried
Where you had painted pictures of deceit and lies

Edit the parts that loo a bit frayed
So you can put something better and new on display
It's not the fact that your mind is empty
It's leaving you space to create plenty
