Zen Kiss

Zen Kiss

Feet pressed in soft mud
Imprint earth with wet kiss
Toes sunk in luscious soil
Awakening mind
Opens like a flower
Petals unfold in radiant awareness
Gem of Buddha self sparkles

Monkeys howl from swaying branches
Sunlight filters through in golden splashes of warmth
Cool touch of crystal breeze caresses bare skin
Birds sing celestial melodies on the Aeolian wind
Pale moon suspended in aqua sky
Like an ancient talisman

Oval pool reflects emerald trees
Cryptic face illuminated in rainbow waters
Opal eyes glitter with golden tears of joy
Reverential hands gather cool essence in supple palms
Each sacred step into the heart of magic
A prayer whispered into the wind
As the blessing of maternal love touches his very soul
Her sweetness filling him with ecstasy
Loins sing with bliss
Bathed in the ageless morning
Of a natal world
Born of mystery
