Self

Calm the anger that's in your heart,
blow the fire before it starts,
replace it with the cool breeze of peace,
then all your troubles will cease

Blow away the wind of frustration,
and with it goes away Man's temptations,
then in your mind Heaven will be
and you will find that you are your own ecstasy.

Do not take me to task,
I freely let you ask,
all that you need I will give,
for in the end Man must live.

A dream

A beautiful waterfall seen on a dark night,
and all the trees and leaves only add to the delight,
with all this,
the moon sits up there shinning so bright with its white light.

A red petal flower smiles at me,
bless it, it has made me happy,
a deer seen running in the woods,
as the hunter aims with hit cruel goods.

Drink the river's water,
my doesn't it taste so good.
Its goodness brought about by its simplicity,
such simple water has made me happy.
God bless nature and all its beauty.

Then comes the cat and sits by me,
looks at my direction and purr's mysteriously.
I realize my own folly,
it is not a myster,
rather the cat just wants to be happy.

So I pet it with gentle care,
to see if my hand it could bear.
Lo and behold it purr's somemore,
the happiness in me did roar.

Happiness is everywhere and all around,
it is in the sky, its in the ground.
All I have to do is look and see,
that nature itself makes me happy.
