Analysis of Zen



Kind and relaxed
Peaceful and calm
Intuitive messages
Meditative art
Picturesque minds
Birds meaningful trill
Where those that were sick
Are no longer ill
And light of all colours
devine their shape
A mountain a river
A dying lake
Through the storms of the world
And the insane mind
To the crying child
To one such as mine
An expression of god
One of billions to see
That make up the love and reality.
From believer to lost
Each soul be free
From their jars of woe
Stigmatism free
And one into chant
For harmony
To live in pure motion
With dignity
