IF MONKEYS COULD TALK
the children
the sun rises and they awaken,
opening their eyes, and lifting their heads
from their long, cold slumber.
the sun shines brilliantly, and
each one of them returns the
bright yellow glow, every one of them
a small sun.
their father smiles down on
his little children, and they
smile back at the caress of his
life-giving hands on their outstretched arms.
all day long he moves,
their gaze follows him across the sky, until,
night comes with their mother scolding coldly.
they fall asleep, heads down with shame,
they cannot hear her.
...thousand rains...
up on the expanse i see the earth, fernished with comfort
and youthful bud poised a thousand mysteries waiting to unfold
and while the earth yet sings her song i am still
and still th'eternal rain falls and i see...
i've lived a thousand lives i'll never live
died a thousand deaths i'll never die
inside the temple of nature is draped with majesty
and neath the tepid umbrage framed with glory
and deaf falls my song upon the life which surrounds me
and still th'eternal rain falls and i see...
i've dreamt a thousand thousand dreams
walked a thousand walks but one
returning home i find my heart
and in the cool of the wet awakens
and foot upon foot somewhere i find i've missed the turn in the river
and now all things flow unto me in abundance
and still the rain rains
and forever th'eternal rains
sweet...sweet the rain
i've a thousand thousand more
What dragon species are you?

QUOTEABLES:
'we all have destinations in our lives, but as we wind along the path to get there, there's no better place for us to be than 'here', so be sure to enjoy it.'
'we live in a world of illusion. illusion will never yield true freedom. so long as we accept illusion in our minds, we are not free. with all the Churches of Man--Religion, Society, Commercialism, etc.--relentlessly bombarding us with their preachings, and vying for our fealty, it is no wonder those who seek true freedom, enlightenment and peace find it so elusive. it is the finding of that path and traversing it which appeals to the spiritual side in us all.'
