The beach.C H I L D R E NP L A Y.
Each pebble the stone of the
wise during the game.
To give form to a

thought is Eros' eternal

sweet satisfaction.

Red leaf, pierced by light.

God annotates your swirling

dance in gusting winds.


The old genome can | now be deciphered, new codes | inscribed in time's sand.

................. Silent, the Logos Heeding the soft voice

suffers the ravages of of the internal law un-

.
Come see what delight will ripen while time slips by
l i k ea g r e yf i e l d m o u s e.

The MIND g r o w s s l o w l y
listening in silence. The
CROWD mills in the streets.


In each BEGINNING
when He calls forth the light, God
speaks sotto voce.





Love of wisdom lights
thought's fire in the hours
of the soul's dark night.
P H I L O S O P H Y is
a birthright. Once claimed it moves
toward t r a n s c e n d e n c e.


SAMENESS defines the

Logos who forever is

changing the changes.
..................... ...................... ...................... ...................... ......................
A point has no weight . To know the borders
no extension. Why is it
of life and love! LOOK, RAIN
so hard to carry?
DROPS ON THE BUDDHA.

Those who know war have
true knowlege. The many make
war without knowing.

Living forms flow in | superabundance; like tears| at tragedy's death.


T h o u g h t travels with the

the speed of darkness. The private
mind conceives conceit.


Say what is WISDOM but to walk in the heart the
steep way of sorrow?
