Difference

Picked a piece of ice 
Fell from the sky
Kept in the ice box
One…
To research

Picked a piece of ice
Fell from the sky
Kept in the ice box
Another…

Unchanged

Thrust a circle
Became an ellipse
Area of which
Remained intact

Looking For An Augury

Relieving from sorrows of ‘samsara’
Looking for an augury
Wasted Time is up
I will not close my eyes
Looking at the eyes of Buddha
Immersing in the 
Overflowing metta stream
Enlightening the mind

Wash the dirt off
Awakening the five faculties
Taking the piety flowers
Blooming in the heart
Offer Buddha feet

Locate in Ariya path
Leading to Nirvana relief
Cutting off ‘Raga’ suffers
Wrapping my body
Worship Buddha feet

Love

Not to meet with 
Someone else’s eyes
If its my heart
The only place to hide
Your blue eyes
With much gladness 
Open my heart to
Imprison you inside

So was it

A heart with no love
though moved from me
A heart full of love
Moved away from you

Love Is Wonderful

I sleep
She sleeps
I don’t sleep
She doesn’t sleep
Love is wonderful 

I sleep
She doesn’t sleep
I don’t sleep
She Sleeps
Love is wonderful

Jesus Alive

You are the star who forsake the darkness
You are the coolness who cherished intimacy
Always present in our hearts
Jesus you are alive
We are yours

Sin is rampant in the world
Hearts are filled with sorrow
Extinct by my lord
We fell in brotherly love
Jesus you are alive
We are yours

No the death stops you
Resides in our hearts
Always cheerful kind 
Heart felt Great figure 
Jesus you are alive
We are yours

Truth

As he was    told
The truth is gold
He kept on  hold
The lies he   told

Love

To chant day and night 
It’s not a mantra.
Kept in the heart throughout life 
A great commitment...

To revenge or to hurt 
It’s not a battle of love. 
To offer with devotion 
A noble Holy Mass...

To fall victim to sensual pleasure 
It’s not a human sacrifice.
For a never-ending affection 
A great gift...

To give up this life
It’s not a narrow feeling. 
In a Samsara affection
A fulfillment of perfection
