Poem Artwork

The Buddhist preaching

Touches deeply my heart;

The Daoist doctrine

Forms my bone marrow.

Some Confucius's notions

I use to stretch my mind

And broaden my horizons;

The theory of Yang and Yin

Creates the solid basis

Of my daily routine.

 

 
My hands hold fast
 
Some technical skills;
 
For all my substances
 
I'm obliged to my ancestry;

My thoughts are all

The product of my mind;

My calmness is a gift

Bestowed on me from above--

I polish it thoroughly

Thru my worldly involvement.

We should all be so lucky as to have your appreciations and habits of heart and mind. BTW, I just finished editing an audio book for my company and I think you would appreciate it. The audio book won't be out for a while, but the hard cover is available. Radical Wholeness by Philip Shepherd. He also narrates the book.
