Water lilies’ grace Their lovely head of crowns rise Beauty all around
purity of the lotus
Pond permeates stillness Lotus in the transcendent Some sacredness here
Spring
What is this spring it’s love bestowed with every flower each bud or blossom— a kiss?
birth of jasmines
Spring’s sleepy buds Flowing birth — of jasmines Heart — full of joy, hope
Scent takes breath away Gardenia in regal white My Mother’s perfume
Magic of sunlight plays games with Nature’s colors Who is the painter?
Keep the light
Keep the light inside heart and mind Even as the night swallows the sun Stare at, hypnotize the moonlight Keep its radiance shining in your pure consciousness until the next moon shines Again and again
