Monks Poems

Monks

I don't think, I'm a feeler
And I feel heavily for her
A monk grows out his head
And leaves his house,
A patriot would turn for her

I don't speak, I'm a liver
Due to the abstinence 
Of my other parts

The devout preacher
Cuts and pours
His heart onto bathroom sinks
For his house is empty

He, has left his religion
For something more heavenly

Munich Home of Monks

Walking through the tall pines of Perlarcher forst 
Munich Germany I walk deep within the woods 
every day the barbarian alps in my view colorful 
leaves rustle beneath my feet my London fog 
trench coat blows open in the wind as I wander 
over forgotten Polish graves my soul seeks solace 
in this Marianplatz meaning

Silent Prayers

Faithful few
Filled the 
Firmament with
Fundamental fervour
Finally finding, through
Fastidious fellowship,
Future fanatical friends and
Fulfilling the fine frequency
Favourable for forgiveness.
Finally.

Monks

Solitary monks
Come togerher as brothers
Simply in communion.
The Spirit binds
Each man's life.
They work,
And they pray 
To the glory of God,
Breakling bread together,
Renouncing the evil world.

Monks of Shun Lun Phi

The monks of Shun Lun Phi
Live life in the mountains high
While pulls the ground in gravity
	Meditative hands stretch up
	Bequesting sky to drown them nigh

I Heard This Joke: Two Monks

 Two men
walking
Two monks
talking
Both men
Buddhists
One man
hiding lust

They see
Maiden ... great beauty
Muddy lake
Body exposed would make

The older monk
Offers to carry
Gratefully thanked 
By the Beauty

After more miles
Walking and talking
Younger monk smiles
Did you enjoy the carrying?

The older one declared:
"I put her down miles back
But now I feel almost despaired
That you still have her on your back!"

Two Monks At the Temple Gate In Anji

Amidst saffron robes nail-bit hand reveals
mobile
phone

Laughing-robed companion brandishes
ice cream
cone

Shaved-headed naughty boys practice
chanting
tones

Humble golden temple gates peeling paint
stone on
stone

Heart of the Valiant: Thirteen Monks

Thirteen men of doubt we were; forsaken from our own minds.
We weren't like our masters. We were like raw iron with no grind.
Without any experience and faith, we seemed weak to all.
Yet, we were the thirteen that were said to hear the call.

We were mined from our deposits, and forged into a force.
A force of

Burning Monks

The monks are burning on the street
They are protesting the violence of war
Pain is not part of their protest
Only the pain in the hearts of men who foster war
They will become ashes on the street
And be swept up into the winds of eternity
Where are these universal souls?
How do we contact them?

Are they lying in the

Wax Monks

The worship of light,
Scented prayers resonate:
Mass of lit candles.

Monks Peace

I finally found my peace,
Within these cold stone walls,
I'm Humbled on my knees,
As every echo calls...
This accidental priest,
By some glorious chance,
In a servants fleece,
And crucifix in hand...
Bathing in a light,
That's naked to the eye,
But as its blinding me,
It's warming me inside...
Which leaves me falling deep,
As the choir stands,
Letting me be free,
In gregorian chant...
I finally found

Tell the Monks

Darest Vicar –
Tell your kins: the monks
White-haired under a false piety
Their sermons under-nourished
Many of the young inmates
Of the huge monasteries!

Darest Vicar –
Where are those gentle levant monks?
Tell your bothers: the monks
Especially that notorious monk
Wearing a huge globe over blind eyes
Wearing a tower-hat on a bald head
The prodigal partition of our nurture
Remains the perdition of the

Two Monks

1

A glittering candle flame

A candle flame does not flutter
and is not extinguished
for it is determined to glitter
and not to be tarnished!
Said “Dear devout
Halt a moment and hark!
Here is a blemish-less monk
even in the dark!!”
