Miracle Point

The lion skull in the desert

shelters a bee hive.

Sea water through the aeons

has made of rock a rookery.

Suffering has carved new

caves in the heart.

In Tara's empty space

miracles take place.



(Tara: Sanskrit for the

ethers.. also capital

  of ancient Ireland)

(to Tara L B)



IRAQ



Date palms in Iraq

turns desert rocks

into dates.. inside

are seed rocks.



Some dates are eaten

by themselves

and some are turned

into sugar rocks.



(Date sugar has polysaccharides

disaccharides and monosaccharides

and is more healthful than

sugar derived from plant killing

and burning animals in sugar

cane fields)
