dear friends!! let us meet today in the garden, where we may find the scent of summer's flowers under a soft fall of snow... as we sip our cups of jasmine tea, let us contemplate the words of the poet...

~stay close to the lovers~


what is the lyricism of light?

it is a sutra of love through the heart;
a song of surrender
that every atom of creation sings;
a buddha of the shining mind.

what company we keep
will be judged.
stay close to the lovers.
keep close to the open-hearted.

poetry wears our truth like rags
but it forms our real being.
the earth feeds us from its green heart.
we survive the beauty.
we die wanting it.
poems break open the earth of us
and make room for our souls.

what we open in this world
flowers in heaven.
if we blink once
all the angels fly away.
but if we blink twice
we will see that the universe has come back
as our poem.

there is a music we can never sing
without being the throat of a great surrender.
our death song is our life song.
what we give away
always comes back original and deathless--
the lyricism of our shining light.
