Awake

 audio

buddha mind is here to find
with each conscious breath -
Inhalation, exhalation
repeated until death

a chance to know, a chance to grow
within the flowing stream
of neverending thinking
of memories and dreams -

in between and all around
living life goes on
awake in this reality
is where we each belong

not in the past,  which doesn't last
but fades and fades away
and what will be we cannot see,
Just here right now today

inhalation, exhalation
rhythmic pulsing breath
is the key to be freed
while there's still breath left...

Getting Wet

 video

 am I anyone? am I you
just a different point-of-view?
are we all of us just the same?
all getting wet in the rain

all of us in a stream
flowing from what has been
expecting what is to come,
presently being one

consciousness which we share
with everyone everywhere
above and underground
in unheard living sound

of thought adrift in streams
mind afloat in dreams
wondering who we are
while we're moving very far

through interstellar space
Sun giving us a taste
of having points-of-view
of being me or you

getting wet in the rain
because we're all the same
consciousness which we share
just like each breath of air...

Extreme Beauty

 video

 a pool of sunlight on the ocean
far away from shore
glitters as the air in motion
ripples more and more

water molecules caressed by
molecules of air
through which sunlight bounces to my
eyes and everywhere

in the landscape all around me
where mountains reach the shore
the shimmering interplay that I see
makes my spirit soar

into space, into the aether
into the in between
unto a state where I am neither
awake or in a dream

in a place of extreme beauty
and seeing such a sight
relieved that I have done my duty
dissolving in the light

glittering with the air in motion
far away from shore
a pool of light in rippling ocean-
wanting nothing more...

Clouds

 video

 the metamorphosis of water droplets
high up in the sky
in symbiotic relationship
with the air that's blowing by

shape-shifting ephemeral images
for anyone to view
'all the world's a stage'... above
there's always something new

dragons, angels, jellyfish
UFOs and more
inkblots in the heavens -
that's what they are for

expanding collective consciousness
lifting up our minds
elevating vision
as separateness unwinds

with the metamorphosis of water droplets
high up in the sky
in symbiotic relationship
with the air that's blowing by...

Serendipitously

 video

 no other time
no other place
falling in love
in outer space

in what is between
where we have been
and where we will be
serendipitously

in the embrace
of each other to face
what is to come
without the Sun

while spinning around
in currents we've found
to a new star,
so very far

beyond all we've known
to a new home
falling in love
rising above

in the embrace
of each other we face
no other time
in no other place....
