Wintry Satori

Buddha cast in bronze

--- heaped high w/ new-fallen snow ---

smiles unfazed, dwindles

cross-legged in the garden

under the sky's vast length, breadth.

Satori

Sense the colour organized
geometrical
formed unceasing intricate
mathematical
a fractal constant
a universal momentum
conjugates

hidden within the original

Only by individual
her Satori defined 
a blessed moment
in her beauty

singing its brief song

appearing to bloom 

a peaceful aura 
emitting out
the inner spirit
without a doubt

it all became one
and smiled back
sharing a subtle truth 
an inside track 

with eyes wide open
pouring out love
he found tears of joy
released from above

Satori

Rejoice the moment
                     with whomever is present,
                         change is a constant.

That's Satori

That's Satori
A blue ocean is satori
A blue sky is satori
a blue cherubim is satori
a blue sapphire is satori
Ablue' the baby is satori
A blue color is satori!
