Raindomization!

Mellow love,

Oh I do,

I do.

 

Lovely little lady,

Pitching your dreams this way;

I’ma rainbow star catcher,

Catching dreams that run my way.

 

Sun come out,

The moon wants to play.

Suns comin’ out,

To play our lives away.

 

Dooo do doooo

Dooo do doooooo;

This is true,

Been misssin’ youuu;

Doooo do dooo

Do doooo dooooooo..!

 

 

‘where da beatz @!?’

Bump Bump!

 

 

“When you sit to listen,

you learn.

When you start to learn,

You become.

When you start to become,

You understand.

When you start to understand,

You sit and listen.”

Mother Earth is calling our names.

*"As i am, they become."
-Zen saying.


On another note,
*focusing my A.D.D...!* lol.
The sunset was Amazing tonight!
I love our ripened, Autumn, pink skies;
and they are so rare and beautiful..!
They start painting the sky, 
just, 
as the sun starts slumbering away.

To me, 
our sunsets are very passionate & romantic.
When coming into full bloom,
they show case their most true form 
of love and beauty, 
selflessly to the world;
and to our hearts.
Then,
in the blink of an eye,
you are left, 
yearning,
again,
for that one true moment together;
that one true moment of love.

What is Real..?

I find myself asking 'what is ..blank..?' more often these days..

Like when i'm working out i say to myself, 'what is pain?' then i'm able to
push out more reps or go longer in whatever activity i'm doing.

I'm pushing the limits of my mind,
what are My limitations..?
what makes Me laugh?
what etc, etc, etc...?

I find extreme beauty and love in Nature, in fact i woke up
at 5:02 this morning and took a meditation walk
in the park across the street,
the air was sweet & full of earthy tree leaf notes and a deep crispness;
it burned my nose to breath and my nose started to drip,
it had to be in the mid to high 20's here in East Wenatchee.
The grass was frosted and softly crushed under my moccasins,
to my eyes, in the light of the street lamps, the grass
sparkled like tiny diamonds were infused 
in an immensely neat greenish white blanket;
i smiled and continued to walk.

At work i caused the biggest cluster fuck to date in my history there
& everyone got all worked up about, well.. really nothing all that
important.
I just asked myself 'is this really going to matter in a year from now..?'
the answer was no, so i just waited for time to pass, then everything
was fine again an hour later.
lol fuck that ish - Jonny Bamboo 1 - Stress ZERO! Mwahahaha Bitches!!! lol just playin.

The sunset this evening was like a Neon Crimson pink, if that is even possible,
all cast above the bluish, white snowcapped mountains and under
a grey clouded valley sky. It was a thin slice of heavenly flava to my soul,
i lost myself for a little while. Some kid was trying to talk to me and i nodded
like everything he was saying mattered, but mud bogging in the mountains
and shooting things just ain't really my thang... meh, but who am i to judge..?

So i just spent thee entire weekend with a Zen monk,
a lot of meditation and thats really all i have to say about that;
oh i jumped in a giant pile of leaves;
i laughed like i was five again - and maybe i am.

i drift,
i smile,
i drift some more;
does life need to be more complicated than this..?

Show me the money honey!
this and that life style no longer appeals to me,
no longer in my dreams do i strive to make
green own me like a slave,
though i will carry the scares from the shackles on my wrists
gladly to help those who fit as lost puzzle pieces to my heart.

Haha the Zen monk said not to think too much,
so i'm done... lol!

Breadth of Flavor, Air we Breath.

*Breadth of flavor, air we breath.
 
Motions of life move
to the motion of the people;
Brought to the succession of life,
May dreams be drempt on clouds
Of sunsets
Cast into starlight *maskarades
And childhood ambitions.
 
As the motion seeks,
Sliding deeper,
Into the sweetest goodbyes of past regressions
And forwards into the stones of the universe.
 
I’ve bled in the pits of fire
And danced in the circle of love;
Now, storms affect my heart
At levels only my sticks and stones
Have come to know;
These bones standing
As pillars to the sky scraper I’m becoming.
 
Leave your falsehoods at the door,
Lie yourself on the railroad of truth;
Lost freedom yearns
To be bought on the sales rack.
 
Search to find yourself in the stars;
Gravitating down
On the leaves in the midst of the fall;
Swimming in the bluest of our sky,
In the visions of our imaginations,
If this is our beginning,
I don’t ever want to touch the finish line.


Doing what best I do,
Truly Love,
Jonny Bamboo!
