"puzzle for the heart and mind"  :) :)
and aloud, yes!

very Zen.  As a (core) Buddhist I can really appreciate this (maybe just for what I take from it).  Very simple and well done.

One day as Manjusri stood outside the gate, the Buddha called to him, "Manjusri, Manjusri, why do you not enter?" Manjusri replied, "I do not see myself as outside. Why enter?

      at 56.91 degrees north latitude
      and 177.81 degrees west longitude
      weather buoy 46035 has served faithfully for 17 years  
      reporting each hour to a weather satellite  
      (itself in a vacuum subject only to solar storms)
      just what the cold waters of the Bering sea
      (and the mirror sea of air above it) are up to
      all 19 hours of summer days and winter nights  
      through gales and calms and passing whales  
      through the sea ice as it scrapes  
      the yellow paint from its sides  
      17 years to meditate  
      in the circle of horizon
      in the heartbeat of waves  
      in the perfect point  
      where all else
      falls away

simple and a puzzle... i enjoyed this poem very much. nice work :) x

i'm still puzzled. thanks :)

A gentle, intimate moment
This may or may not have been the intention
but it seems open enough to let
the mind sweep through in
different directions.

A fitting depth.

thanks.
definitely seems intimate to me.
also, i said 'puzzle' earlier, but really,
it's not meant to be complicated,
just how i feel when i love someone.

It's perfect

first time in my life, or, maybe the second...
not sure, records were destroyed in a fire :)

Succinct, eloquent. Very thought provoking. Im breathtaken
