Hidden rage,
Quiet rage,
Silent rage,
Is only rage.

Outward rage,
Noisy rage,
Yelling rage,
Is only rage

Soothing calm,
Smiling calm,
Gentle calm,
Peaceful mind.

Strange days lived
Under strange light.
Mind flows past
Like water.

Early morning,
Mind flutters
Like a nervous bird.
Bam! Thoughts shattered.
Silence flows again.

Early birds sing
In pre-dawn light,
Breath flows calmly,
Like the tide.

Quiet mind
In the clear moonlight.
Broken heart
Sings a song of joy.

Sweet or sour,
Long or short,
No past, no future,
Just here, just now.

Happy birthday!

Early morning
Smell of fresh toast,
Small offering
Of love.
