Six Canadian Geese
( short inspiring nature poem on geese )
Six Canadian Geese
six canadian geese
waddle, walk and wonder
at asphalt, sidewalk
taking time itself
to cross the "road"
while hurrying humans
sign, grunt and moan
their lives being their own
failing to take it in
speeding off again
this missed opportunity for ease
prompted by six canadians
these geese
Beauty Being The Offspring
( deep zen nature poem on beauty )
Beauty Being The Offspring
wisdom seeks itself
nothing returns to nothing
it returns through something
when something realizes
that it is really nothing
this doesn't mean
that the something
doesn't do anything
it does everything
but having realized
itself as nothing
it no longer identifies
with anything in particular
but identifies with everything
so that whatever happens
out of this total freedom
is absolutely beautiful
