Heaven and earth and I are of the same root, the ten-thousand things and I are of
one substance.....Zen Master Seng-chao.

What you see…………..


A beautiful woman……………is desirable……………….the Monarchs return home.

Sitting still I see time………………the stars twirl all around………………the breeze is hot on the equator.

Memories remind me of you…………….sleepless I toss……………..cool wind blows blue curtains inward.

What do you know that I don’t……………..nothing……………..only what your eyes have seen.

I try not to blink……………I see the Truth……………..clouds quickly cover the moon.

Small child bends forward on knees……………….encountering mud………………..dry dust blows all around him.

I lived for a long time……………….thought I knew it all………………the present moment comes into focus.

A dream is wildly exciting…………….I am startled by noise……………..frost forms lacy patterns on glass.

Believe nothing of what you hear……………..half of what you read………………what you see could be a mirage.

I pull back tightly on my bow……………..arrows fly unaware……………….surprised rabbit colors fresh snow.
