Poem Title:
Poem
Haiku beginning Green Tara begins singing Welcome better days… Morning Sun ends night Inviting eyes to Nature Seeking true health’s light Try sight-see dreaming What Nature does bring winging For nurturing Self. ___*___ Filtering out non-truths Following better curiosity fit Seeking saner trail-heads Where Cheshire cats... refuse to sit. Practicing into a more perfected me One learning to truly, truly ‘See’. Seeing, a higher art to learn… to be Where ‘here’ surrounds one as finally free. ___*___ See the Elements Working in Nature’s own life Muses and angels balancing strife. From the darkest Deeps Energies of directions And wildest chaos… stirs Where darker self Flounders, as cast aside By better nature becoming As he, this other, dark gray in black Stays there swimming until he sinks With the deep claiming him For he is... Not a very happy fellow Who likes to be bothered. ___*___ He is like an old, weathered habit That one has to feed Less he ramble fierce in chaos Angry, blind, and powerful Using remorse as his fuel Feeding terrors with his angers To quench unending thirsts through time. ‘What have I done’, he screams For in the dark swamps There is so little salvation Sighing silently, a wisdom seed sprouts… Then dies, recognizing ‘Here has no home’. ___*___ The Cosmos between... Holding Space, Place, and Time Thankfully, is filled with Life’s rhymes Giving at least places for living dreams to find Wandering into better times Though knowing not exactly where. So, search, and you will find… Depths of persuasion Processing good information There... Releasing for the better remainder of us Fluffier rests. Leaving him supported, curious as I By all that lies beyond understanding Bending, toward one’s own true need, not lies There to practice wise fairness Selfishness merging with growth, Within sharper awareness. ___*___ See… practicing kindness And the five forgivenesses Grants credibility To one’s responsibility… Asking forgiveness, with change Giving full forgiveness, without remorse Forgiving self, with grace Forgiving reluctance to change once Forgiving twice, within stern resolve... To embrace change, or admit weakness Leaving the act of asking forgiveness Still an issue. All within selfless duty... Serving Nature’s management Where assigned responsibility lies. ___*___ Hear now, planet Earth’s mantra ‘Everything in its season’ Children teasing through the ages... ‘See this, see something new’ For curiosities thrive like morning dew Constant, ever appearing Waiting softly for the heat of query, To offer sweetest secrets in dissipation Bright sparkling sprinkles. Like early morning golf balls bouncing through Without shouted ‘4’ warnings To prepare the resting quiet carpet For the light of a busy day. Scattering misty sprays.. such bouncing gifts to find Showing fresh green grasses underneath Heaven surely having spent its restful night here. ___*___ Day passes, Night begins, setting Sun’s reason Inviting eyes back to Dreaming Searching for better selves, teaming… Happy, finding truer homes Leaving others… in darker places To forever roam. Giving right penance To the progress of men Green Tara’s partners Along for the ending ride.
