You are magnificent
Pure land is here
Save, and be saved
Think no other |

| Poem: Dreaming of a Divine Heart [25.03.2008] |
Loneliness, so long, my companion you've been
And alone, with you, my tales are shared
Into the realm of nothing we've been
And together upon the gates, we've staredWe've sat alone, on mountain tops
And thought of life we'd never know
Up endless steps we tiredly walk
With dreams to end this winter's snow |

| Poem: If the Heavens Could... [25.01.2008] |
If the heavens could see
this endless storm
raging against humanity.
From many hearts that bleed
a world to take heed
finding light from this calamity.

|
| Poem: Silence [14.01.2008] |
Silence inside a tear
hearts you cannot hear
walls that shelter such bitter crimes.
Where truth behind your eyes
reveals all beneath your captive’s disguise
and light beyond the darkest hour comes to shine. |
|
| Poem: You Can Never Quell My Fire [06.01.2008] |
You can never quell my fire
nor convince me with your lies
never blind me with your doctrines
nor cloud my boundless skies.No cross that I can't carry
no mountain that I can't climb
no weather that I can't storm
to forge this heart of mine. |

| Poem: Not Fighting, Lustful, Or Struggling [25.12.2007] |
Not fighting with others,
Not fighting with oneself,
Beyond any fighting,
One is noble, trustworthy, and kind. |
|
| Poem: The Coming Hour [18.12.2007] |
A tear, a flower
the coming hour
with the darkness
now taken flight.
A path, a sail
where truth prevails
and many a heart
unveiled in light. |
|
| Poem: Hold On [04.12.2007] |
Mothers and daughters of China
we see your tears, your saddened hearts
fathers and sons, we see your fears
your families torn apart.Hold on to truth
the brightest skies are unfolding
hold on to courage
the coldest tides are turning
hold on, hold on... |

| Poem: China, How You Hide [20.10.2007] |
China, how you hide
behind your walls
showing another face
leaving little to trace
and truth most of all.China, how you hide
behind your smiles
with no tears falling
when the 'party' calling
and the world still beguiled. |
|
| Poem: The Flame [10.10.2007] |
We carry the flame
the torch of truth
for every heart to shine.
For the sanctity of life
and our humanity
freedom for all confined.A light in the distance
another tide turning
the promise of brighter days.
From behind China’s doors
a ‘party’ falling
its crimes and ruthless ways. |
|
| Poem: One Timeless Season [08.10.2007] |
Of heart and mind
in great divide
beyond time and reason
all ways of men.Worlds turning
a promise unfolding
behold one timeless season
“Zhen - Shan - Ren”. |

| Poem: Like Never Before [29.09.2007] |
When evil is deemed as goodness
and only wealth in pocket is sought
when all that is tainted is believed to be purest
our hearts are sold where only the worthless can be bought.When continuity is confined only to one life
and this human world is considered as home
wherever I walk amidst the many
here before the heavens a few stand alone. |
|
| Poem: Only When [24.09.2007] |
Only when amidst
the darkest of nights
can one see
the brightest of stars
only when nearest
our destined shores
can we see oceans
widest and afar. |
|
| Poem: Two Men [17.09.2007] |
Two men of strength and stature
striving for a greater cause
men of heart and hope
exposing inhuman crimes behind China's walls. |
|
| Poem: We Come [06.09.2007] |
From countless lifetimes
we come
to rise above storm
and strife
sail beyond all billow
of seas
into a light more luminous
than sun. |
|
| Poem: Dear China [03.09.2007] |
May your voyage
guide you across boundless oceans
golden sails
awaken you upon timeless shores.
May the truth
uncloud your every horizon
and freedom
be your song forever more. |

| Poem: Behind These Walls [26.08.2007] |
Made in China
from blood and tears
countless thousands remaining
behind these walls. |
|
| Poem: The Day is Coming [23.08.2007] |
The day is coming
ever closer to the hour
when the truth will shine
as never before.Where hearts arise
all grey skies depart
when the ‘party’ and its reign
shall be no more. |
|
| Poem: Letting Go [21.08.2007] |
I sit alone for now she's gone.
Moved on my heart no longer weeps,
freed now from this worldly sleep.So fond I was, her silken kiss.
such bliss, yet lost in Babylon.
I sit alone for now she's gone. |
|
| Poem: At Childhood's End [20.08.2007] |
So easy to be lost within ourselves at childhood's end
For what man could keep that innate good, we had so long ago
Towards purity, a righteous man does seek himself to mendDefend not who we think we are, for these things too shall end
And all shall look upon our wrongs with saddened discontent
So easy to be lost within ourselves at childhood's end |
|
| Poem: The Hard Road [18.08.2007] |
For two years now I've walked the great road
Abiding by high standards set forth
And though now many good seeds have been sowed
Such hardships words cannot adorn'th
Like climbing a mountain of ice and snow
Bare feet bleeding from winter's bite
Lights in the distance keep hope aglow |
|
| Poem: Brighter Days [07.08.2007] |
I see your face
behind the walls
I hear your cries
and silent calls.
Beyond the darkness
and those vicious guards
our hearts are one
shining and never apart. |

| Poem: The Law [22.07.2007] |
The Law
all-embracing
a myriad of hearts
unfolding in light.
The Law
all-encompassing
beyond heavens
and unimaginable heights."Truthfulness - Compassion - Forbearance" |
|
| Poem: Teaching [10.07.2007] |
Countless hardships, one after the next,
Diligently studying the texts,
Bringing me closer to the right fruit. |

| Poem: China's Song of Spring [22.06.2007] |
Poisoned minds
blinding skies
a brutal reign
and storm still raging.
Clouded eyes
parading smiles
a "party's" facade
and chapter soon fading. |
|
| Poem: The Hour of Heart and Light [15.06.2007] |
We ponder the stars and many worlds beyond
perfection in a petalled flower
we wonder across the aeons and a future afar
long enough to miss the hour. |
|
| Poem: A New Light Shines [13.06.2007] |
The sun rises over China
horizons to the hour near done
where a new light shines
and darkness fades
where the song of freedom is won. |

| Poem: Shifu [23.05.2007] |
Where you lead me
I will follow
What you say is
All that's true
Though sometimes weak
And stumbling, I know
There is nothing else
That I can do |
|
| Poem: Reverence [21.05.2007] |
So deep grown were our rings of sin
no hope had humankind
no hope for sight of spring again
our fates could not unwindYet chimes so soft of vows of old
now echo through us all
now echo back with promise retold
and answer heaven's call. |
|
| Poem: Crossing Samsara [17.05.2007] |
The winds of change, so soft they blow.
In the blink of an eye, a thousand years.
Immeasurable is the great river's flow,
to sail, one must remove his fears. |
|
| Poem: Spring's Promise [16.05.2007] |
Such weary faces amidst the towns
For what to find with joy to bring?
The melody of a longing soul resounds
So long forgotten these legends of spring. |
|
| Poem: The Other Side of Dawn [13.05.2007] |
The calm
a long time coming
night darkest before the morn
as light
finds our horizons
on the other side of dawn. |

| Poem: The Party's Fall [03.05.2007] |
Of crimes
and murderous schemes
of poison
and darkest dreamsClouding China’s heart
tearing lives apart
bitter ends by evil means. |
