POEMS
- Short
thoughts
- A poet I am not.
-
- Lately, however, a few
short thoughts have jumped into my head for one reason or
another.
-
- One of the things I have
discovered over the years is, that "why"
something occurs, does not always have "reason"
or "understanding" atttached to it, and so I
have long since given up trying to find a rational reason
for "why" things occur in our lives.
-
- They just do.
-
- Therefore, since the
thought became an idea, and the idea became words, I have
placed them here.
-
- "Why" I do not
know.
-
- Perhaps time will tell.
-
-
- THE
MINDS EYE
-
- The wind
moved unseen,
- The leaves
moved in reply,
- My eyes saw
one of them,
- My mind saw
both.
-
-
- CROSSING
PATHS
-
- I walk
through my life,
- The ant
walks through his,
- We both
pass on the path,
- Which one
of us will go further.
-
-
- ADMIRATION
-
- I admired
the flower,
- It's face
turnd to the sun,
- The wind
blew,
- It's petals
fell,
- My
admiration remained.
-
-
- THE
BUTTERFLY
-
- A butterfly
landed beside me,
- How sad it
does not know karate,
- Then it
flew,
- It landed
again,
- What a
wonderful kata.
- Remember
- Some things
are not meant
- to be
understood in your lifetime.
-
-
- Part the
clouds - see the way.
-
- "The
objective of karate-do is to contribute to the evolution
- of the
human spirit through physical and mental training."
- Sensei
