World Beyond

Cycles

Through endless cycles

nature renews herself - no

thinking, no boasting.

winter melts as spring blossoms

humbly witness miracle

Silent Mind

Warm sunshine, white snow

silent mind links open heart

store up peace, patience

Pathways

True path lies within

universe quietly speaks
reveals understanding

Spring

Chilly Spring morning

snow melts beneath pale blue sky

barren trees revive

Answers

The calmness whispers
permeating universe
Keep to patient path
In time, to pure, searching hearts
all answers will be revealed

Early Morning Moon

Moon stares down, mocking
Full, half, sliver - no matter
Optimism flees

Patience

Heart full of longing
Universe whispers to me
Patience.  Live, watch, grow

A Cold Winter

Bleak winter morning
Even sun feels far away
Longing for summer

Zima

Winter comes early
slate blue swallows disappear
gray skies take over
gold light becomes yellow leaves
cold air chills my bones and heart

Focus

Focusing inward
heart detached from desire
true beauty awaits
forget ego, forget past
path equals destination
