Jeans Questions

Jean wrote:

Questions, why so many questions?

I feel lost.  

Why is everything so confusing?  

Why is everything so loud and noisy?

When will I learn that turning in is all that matters?

When will I appreciate the calm and light Self?  

When will I believe?  

When will I love?

When will I halt and hear?  

The answers are waiting, patiently.

       Jean: Questions, why so many questions? I feel lost.



               Existence questioned

               desperate frog is croaking

               jumps in - splash - no loss



       Jean: Why is everything so confusing?



               Fire flies soaring dance

               hungry frog staring wildly

               picks out one - snap! - ah...



       Jean: Why is everything so loud and noisy?



               Density moves loudly  

               defence causes noisy fights

               sustained space within

               untouched - remaining silence

               split in/out disappears - calm



       Jean: When will I learn that turning in is what matters?



               Frog wants to fly high

               turning its dense nature -

               catch flies - be happy  



       Jean: When will I appreciate the calm and light Self?



               Pond stays in silence

               inpatient frog jumps in - plush!

               desire triggers motion

               frog still frog - croaking brightly

               water moves - sun keeps shining



       Jean: When will I believe?



               Frog's belief in freedom -  

               eagle's flight turns into flop

               shore remains firm - sigh!



       Jean: When will I love?



               Worn out image 'love'

               essential longing from within  

               searched trees in woods



       Jean: When will I halt and hear?



               Your questions subside

               music from within appears

               hear sound of silence



       Jean: The answers are waiting, patiently.



               Answers are there - now  

               listen: frogs are still croaking  

               calm pond - bright sun shine
