Ice

A big block of ice crashes to shore

Weary from all of its travel

White as a zebra without its black stripes

And sad as an unwanted puppy

For reasons unknown

Melting tears and weeping in silence

Golden Buddah

You are like the sun, golden and bright
you are like the mountains, many different grooves
your voice is humming a calming meditation
your spirit is flowing in the wind like tumble weed blowing in the desert
you are the sweet smell of incense rising in the air
you are so peacefull, soothed and relaxed
your arms bent and fingers up
you are a true leader
