Awakening

Like sweet on the tongue,
Sitting in the here and now,
The taste of freedom.

~Dedicated to the perfect presence.

Continual Change

Wave after wave. . .
The ocean pounds the shoreline,
From the mists of time.

~Dedicated to impermanence.

Zazen

Sitting still,
For over forty years,
The flower blossoms.

~Zazen is your true home.

Black Crow

A ragged black crow,
Both miscreant and savior,
Cawing Buddha's name.

~Dedicated to the beauty and perfection of nature.
