No "o's" allowed in this poem.
Battles swirl as Life embraces all
Brutally battered, bruised, busted minds
Hearts lust, whine, cry, where is peace?
Dead? Still?, Yet unbirthed?

" Nay!" say sages "Ages past hath taught"
Learn, seek, embrace the teachings
Release thy mind, thy heart
Within peaceful walls reside gardens calm

Symmetry, silver-green pastel shades and muted sun
Rest weary knaves and maidens
Hear the waters sparkle and shine
Here Zen gardens are thine!
