New Haikus

Aging, death--so what?
We are eternal beings...
wrap your mind around!


 Cooperation,
the way onward and upward...
not competition


"What does it all mean?" 
Question asked with tongue in cheek
got some good answers 

 You may buy into
"That was then and this is now..."
In truth, it's all NOW


These dying roses
still emit a sweet fragrance...
I can't throw them out

DREAM WORLD

Poem I wrote, inspired by the quote below it.


We are dreaming our world,
we are the producers, the actors,
and writers, leading ourselves ever deeper.
The dreamer dreams, and the dreamer
within the dream dreams.
These dream plays are a maze, an amaze,
a play within a play within a play,
a journey of learning and going within
without end, fraught with meaning
and significance. The All of you is watching,
and lo, is donning many roles,
incognito.


"Humanity dreams the same dream at once, and you have your mass world. The whole construction is like an educational play in which you are the producers as well as the actors. There is a play within a play within a play. There is no end to the 'within' of things. The dreamer dreams, and the dreamer within the dream dreams. But the dreams are not meaningless, and the actions within them are significant. The whole self is the observer and also a participator in the roles."
