Time to Awaken Now
I sped to the temple. Breaking human laws, to align with universal ones. I approached. As my brow lowered, grace entered my being. Sunlight greeted me. As I slowly passed A stone Buddha. No one was around. Monks must be out. Only a bird sat and sang to all the flowers. ~ As I entered the main hall, the wood creaked beneath me, And my awareness became acute. The large Buddha towered over a myriad of empty zafus. All in accordance and order. I sat, emulating the statue. Even my temporal imperfections matched the stone carvings. Yet, my mind was with the bird. I stretched out my legs, toward the wall, after a long sit. The flowers were still after a breeze And that bird had flown away.

I Sped to the Temple
there is no answer no statement recorded no such truth that answers the souls yearning ... other than what is found within - we too often feel lost stranded, abandoned by the cosmic whole without direction but we were given everything EVERYTHING we need to find peace within the being we animate stop being a victim to life s.q. .

seek no further
She hears beyond ten, the sound of one hand clapping. Nothing comes to mind Business of being is busybodying self, needs no false witness Mental o' pedal tormenter love to meddle what a nomenclature   Left behind, acres of forest writings. None the wiser on walls This life's an empty breath.  A garden ain't here to impress or placate. Dumpty the great fall, silent while branches grew tall.   Come hear, creator

Silenced - Haiku
By the creek we sit dormant Filling the empty spaces with sensational ornaments Like a Christmas tree We can be turned from plain To extraordinary All it takes is for you to sit and be still So that one day You can be the ruler of your world as well

Sit and Be Still
The incessant untrained mind Is like a dripping faucet with an open drain; Never full of contentment, never empty of thought. The stable training mind Is like a dripping faucet with a closed drain; On the way to fullness, every drop of mindful practice adds up. The overflowing master's mind Is like an overflowing tub with a constant faucet and closed drain. Full of bliss, he stands as a totem of overflowing wisdom and insight.
