What's that sound

Sitting fixedly,
Thinking of not thinking,
Ruminating over
The clamour
Of
Remnants of the day,
Things done,
Undone,
The verbosity,
The silences,
The hushed, judged,
Decided and dithery,
The utter trivia,
Even the
Copernican,
Finally the breath.
Two zen bells.
Session over.

Since every thought is a seed, I am looking forward to a delicious harvest.
