[Lunoor]

Land of bubbles---
some talk of zen
some do the dishes.

[Death Defier]

worker bees can leave
even drones can fly away
the queen is their slave

How fluid is the river

the clarity of the wind

Unconcerned and pure

[Turin Otzaki]

no sky at all

no earth at all

and still

the snowflakes fall

[The Fool]

earth in the sky

ring the bell

window crack

[Lunoor]

To what shall

I liken the world?

Moonlight, reflected

In dewdrops.

Shaken from a crane’s bill.



---Dogen

[Tiff]

eyes gently look down

talk but without making sound

speaks only a dream

[Da Pimp]

You can sit by a stream for a thousand years,
You can sit on zazen eight hours a day,
You can drink tea as if it was booze,
You can talk about the way and put everybody to snooze.


You can talk about compassion all day long,
You can show all your ideas to the whole world.


You can read the Diamond Sutra and know it by hard,
But there is no awakening without a heart.


How dare you to speak of the ways and means,
When you don't love all living things?


(at this point, Da Pimp bitchslaps somebody)

[Tiff]

Does the sleeper sleep,

or is the dreamer dreaming

the sleeper who sleeps?

[Tiff]

neon tubed rainbows

visible invisible

Near my pillow.

LOL G!

[Lunoor]

Emptiness, fullness
the crow flies, the mosquito
bites.

[snowblind]

day of birth rewind

to uncover all input

there lives the I AM

[Mornings Son]

Fresh fragrance wind

Sun dispells shadows and fog

The new beginning

[Lunoor]

" umbrella-hats
sun hats...
trust in
Buddha! "


Parasols, umbrella--hats
blow away...
Buddha nature's here to stay.

[Lunoor]

A hundred monkeys

typing

evolution.

[Lunoor]

Nothing holy
everything stinks
of buddhas


I put this in the tone first, forgot about this thread here

[Gonzo]

Good one.

[Lunoor]

Thanks G
