4 march,days are getting longer ...

My storehouse having been burnt down, nothing obstructs my view of the bright moon.

Beautiful poem

BY JOHN YAU

Come live with me
And we will sit

Upon the rocks
By shallow rivers

Come live with me
And we will plant acorns

In each other's mouth
It would be our way

Of greeting the earth
Before it shoves us

Back into the snow
Our interior cavities

Brimming with
Disagreeable substances

Come live with me
Before winter stops

To use the only pillow
The sky ever sleeps on

Our interior cavities
Brimming with snow

Come live with me
Before spring

Swallows the air
And birds sing.

“Do not look at yourself with disgust, you are a gift to this earth. You are beautiful, you are a light, an energy, an essence. You are nature...”

When,just as they are,
White dewdrops gather
On scarlet maple leaves,
Regard the scarlet leaves

Happy new year ,1 January 2014

Always we hope
Someone else has the answer
At the center of our being
You have the answer
And you know what you want.
There is no need
To run outside
For better seeing.
Nor to peer from a window.
Rather abide at the center of your being
For the more you leave it,the less you learn.
Search your heart
And see
The way to do
Is to be.

_lao Tzu
