Rain - No Rain

Welcome me, into the
Limestone caverns
Of your heart.
Where waters wash away,
The sediments of time.
Allow me, with flowing
Waters pure and clear
To erase the stains of,
All your doubts and fears.


~Dedicated to everyone.

Zazen

Clear like space
the Universe is burning,
but flames can't touch it.

~Dedicated to not-knowing mind.

Fish

A falling leaf
Shatters the ice on the pond,
Fish swim in water.

~Dedicated to Dogen Zenji

Being

Gagging on words
One misses the true moment,
Of just being.

~Dedicated to non-thinking mind.

Paisley Blue

To kiss your face,
For coming into this world,
Thank you Paisley Blue.

The temple bell,
Teaches the humility,
Of letting go.

~Dedicated to those who wholeheartedly practice the Way.

The Robin's song,
Resounding through the zendo,
Demonstrates the Way.

~Dedicated to Dogen Zenji
