Premium Member Lama Drama
Thoughts that thrive on scattered dreams
shoot through the mind like laser beams
Hunger echoes a hollow song
Voices merge, intestines long
Lips are dry, and tongues are parched
Memories are pressed and starched
No miming board can take the heat
Hot irons that scorch the hands and feet.

Cold days flow into...

Premium Member A Dalai Lama Quote
There are only two days in the year that nothing can be done
One is tomorrow and the other is yesterday with no reruns
How true, this Dalai Lama quote
Comforting words to keep us afloat
It's not word for word, but today is the day to love everyone

Kundun, a Movie About the Dalai Lama
What struck me is that it showed him
Always leaving
And sadly looking back
At his family home
Going to Llasa
To be (re)educated
Tenzin Gyatso was found as a young child
Went through many tests to prove
That he was the 13th Dalai Lama
Reincarnated
He passed the tests
“That cup is mine”
“These prayer beads...

From a Tibetan Head of State and Government,

by holding talks with Chinese leaders.
He has also...

One simple touch of peace now springs,
Note kindness here in compassion.
Live love as such with what life brings,
Heed fond good cheer in sure action;
Abide with grace when conflicts come,
Meet each new day with happy smiles;
Obey and face the truth that sums.
Deed words fine stay as...

Dalai Lama
Dalai Lama 


Dalai Lama, the Buddhist monk
giggles a lot
when interviewed on TV
he sounded like Readers Digest
platitude upon platitude
between giggles.
He walked a lot wore solid boots.
In the background, a Tom & Jerry show 
with the sound turned off.
The impression was that of a village idiot.
Why does...

Delai Lamas Bench, Anglesey
So the records say on a past day,
The Dalai Lama sat on a peaceful bench, not that far away!

I had to find out if he was right,
So set off to sit on this Anglesey delight,

When I got to Llanbadrig church,
The wind was swirling high on...
