* Horses

Posted on February 19th, 2008 by jill. Filed under jill.


Three fields of horses

Flicking tails

Clambering barefoot on rocks

Wild in their freedom

When I see them

Manes flowing like jetplane trails

Streams like fully integrated creatures

I close my eyes and feel the earth spin

You will let me in

Or heaven and earth will reverse

And tornadoes hurl into my heart

In desperate causes

You will take me in

Or tropical seas will freeze over

Mother abandon their babies

Streams flow back to their sources

You welcome me in

The clouds and fields reveal delirium

My effervescent arms lean back

As life and all its anguish pauses.

Buddhist Quotes

The function of fire is to burn and give light. The function of water is to wash away filth. The winds blow away dust and breathe life into plants, animals, and human beings. The earth produces the grasses and trees, and heaven provides nourishing moisture. The five characters of Myoho-Renge-Kyo are also like that. They are the cluster of blessings brought by the Bodhisattvas of the Earth, disciples of the Buddha in his true identity. — Nichiren Daishonin
