Crows

The crows of Upaya,
Wearing black zen robes,
Bow at the dharma gate,
And caw The Buddha's name.

~Dedicated to the cawing of crows.

Laboring on the hillside,
Picking strawberries.

Infinity II

We are here,
To glimpse Infinity,
And return to her.

Dedicated to infinite time and space.

Released,
And held by infinity,
Finally home.

~Dedicated to this lifetime.

With feminine power,
Her waves crash and roll.
