Philosophy in silence*

Philosophy in silence*


All these philosophers, none on my path
Some met with fate gentle, others had some wrath
From Plato, Aristotle and Socrates too
What they have put in life was meant not for me, maybe you
So they quote many sayings that words end up disappearing
For more words to enter this Universe as it is always clearing


Dom*Colucci 2011

Patiently waiting in effortless effort*

Patiently waiting in effortless effort*


It is no wonder not to wander, for it is no more
It is in Consciousness that one knows, that is for sure
That emptiness feeling to be without effort all the time
Leaving resistance of two hands clapping far behind
The energy that has expanded in taking away this trait
It is all in the settling as always, for one surely waits


Dom*Colucci 2011

The trend has end*

The trend has end*


Variety is empty and I see well
Nothing but where Soul is, this I can tell
No more to search for as it has end
To play follow the leader with people's stupid trends
This I advance with the greatest to be Aware
For I think not no more, I stay here not there


Dom*Colucci 2011 

The future has nowhere to go but here*

The future has nowhere to go but here*


This place of void and stillness that is here
The one who seeks calmness, will be crystal clear
To gaze upon the blue skies, that are so vast
It is revealed more and more as the clouds go past
I am Now fully occupied, the past tense is gone
For it is the future within this Now that is here, DONE

Cannot go back*

Cannot go back*


The winds are blowing fierce, in the park
Shaded by the trees, alone in this dark
Seeing these wisps of wind, blow the leaves all around
Dancing in a cyclone, without making a sound
Spiraling upward from the ground and not to stop
Looking to attach themselves once again, to the tree top

Universe, a painted picture*

Universe, a painted picture*


What a place so vast, open to see
A wide open shot in my eye, clear and free
Dotted all around, such life without a flaw
The Universe is balanced with this, natural law
Rivers flow one way and the skies are blue
A perfect setting for one's eye and it is effortless too


Dom*Colucci 2011

Rainy days outside*

Rainy days outside*


The rain, it foreplays at the window sill
I sit in my chair, watching it still
The dance, for it becomes a covering of wet
To make the grass green, it has seen nothing yet
But I ponder by looking outside and see
I am still in this chair as dry as can be

It stands right here, only...will*

It stands right here, only...will*


It is moving, all round about
It is in your eyes only, without a doubt
A movement to make a distraction, staying still
Feel its Consciousness, Now this is its will
You are both integral, for there is nothing there
Opened within, and becoming very well Aware


Dom*Colucci 2011

You have seen what it has always*

You have seen what it has always*


Where do you come from, with eyes to see?
Did you revert back inward, in letting it be?
A deep touch within to meditate
For the known of nothing, is its fate
Look, a blank black on its screen
Dead silence abounds, so it seems


Dom*Colucci 2011

What is next?...but there is none*

What is next?...but there is none*


What, no more?...a simple task
Knowing this moment releasing the mask
The transparent one sees clearly Now
The Universe has just opened, but it always allowed
Where was this one that has a no longer past?
This moment was here and the next one does not last


Dom*Colucci 2011

Nothing saves always*

Nothing saves always*


No one wants nothing, don't you see it clear
For it makes one move effortlessly and always here
To attach on to something, is what duality relishes
It is a strong form of death, ignorance knows its wishes
One's eye gets tricked and it seems no way out
It is in silence of the Soul that eliminates this, without a doubt


Dom*Colucci 2011

Gushing with insight*

Gushing with insight*


I see within, this fountain of wealth
It has nurtured so well, in Soul with health
Deep journey inside, pulling it to the top
Inherent wisdom in nothing, I have learn to stop
Now in this silence, I can only advance
No more spinning the wheel and taking a chance

To be free from within*

To be free from within*


This blockage has no function to be within
It has to go, for it will not be around again
It even knows this, this deep dark shadow
For there is no room for it, in a chasm so hollow
It cannot cling on to nothing not even itself inside
For it needs substance for that, it is no longer satisfied

Do you get your point?*

Do you get your point?*


Pointing fingers at me?
Then let us deduce and see
I see one of them, yes I do
But look again, three back at you
Now what do you think you are thinking?
Where is your intelligence linking?


Dom*Colucci 2011

Be the loop in the thread*

Be the loop in the thread*


Threading through the big loop
Meandering what is in front of me, the group
No one seems to be Awakened in the knowing
I have detached in that magnetic field, it is showing
For all the wheel that suffers, still has a long way to go
For they see outside themselves and that is all they know


Dom*Colucci 2011

Cold as no dice*

Fumbling dice*


Trained and conformed, to be in jail
It was ignorance's last chance ditch, to save its veil
But the scholar deep within said no dice
It is this time, for your own advice
You were never meant to be here, what are you for
To the Enlightened One, it must show you the door

The water is in flames*

The water is in flames*


I walk on the path of this fine afternoon
Nowhere in particular to be there soon
I see a mother and a little girl with a pink balloon in her hand
Both come to the water pond's edge and there they stand
I look over the rails into the pond as well, I admire
What intrigues me most is the red carp, the water is on fire


Dom*Colucci 2011

Awakened journey*

Awakened journey*


I had a dream once and I did exist
It made me a physical, which made me resist
For it was a body that I always carried around
This luggage of attraction that made me so bound
But endured well to open this mask
To finally become Awakened from no easy task

One push into the great beyond*

One push into the great beyond*


Broke free in being, that is liberated
Happiness abounds Now and to be celebrated
Freedom of this, like it has blew me with the wind
Sailing like a kite up high, again and again
Oh great beyond, you accept me so
My Trust is within, I will Now let go


Dom*Colucci 2011

Little treasures we have inside*

Little treasures we have inside*


Wind wafting through the trees
The pines and Douglas firs, a smell to please
Fresh air that makes one feel good on the way
Appreciating all that is, as each moment stays
It is like the Soul has made this in each and every step
The little treasures inside of our Awareness we have kept


Dom*Colucci 2011 

Geese come home again*

Geese come home again*


In a distance I hear the geese calling
The spring is here and the rain is not falling
Openness for these water fowl to fly 
The direction is pointing for them in the sky
Ah yes a pool below, it looks very calm
But not for long, the ripples will be here on the pond


Dom*Colucci 2011

Seeing higher things to come*

Seeing higher things to come*


Few wisps of white clouds
So far up in silence, not loud
Dancing slowly in my eyes
Breath taking view feeling so high
Exhilarating to today's touch
Loving every moment of this, oh so much


Dom*Colucci 2011

WOW!!!!..what a day*

WOW!!!!..what a day*


Sunshine in a great day
This aligned feeling is the way
Continuance in being calm and warm
Shaping all in the ground to come up, sprout and form
Yes this is the way one finds what is inside their being
The beauty of all around, with spring's creation in seeing


Dom*Colucci 2011

Spring is back, yay!*

Spring is back, yay!*

Such a fantastic afternoon
Waited a long time, anticipated soon
Now it is back in the yard once again 
What a treat to usher in spring as it begins
To hear the robins and chick-a-dees
I am here in this harmony, with being at ease
Thanks*

Haikus in motion*

Haikus in motion*


Calm sits in the woods,
Slight breeze hints the air,
The snowflake hits the ground*




Moon has arisen,
Mountain turns black
Tree branch falls*



Summer dies in parched grass
Rain sits in a tankful of nothingness
A bullfrog plays on lily pad*




The wind chimes ring a soft tone
The blue jay is happy in the tree
The sun stays still as the sky hides*




Clouds await
Rain does its dance
Teacup is empty...*

Walk in the sun
Daisy smiles in the field
Chipmunk runs away*


Chick-a-dee sings gleefully
Slug on a rigid rock
Clouds melt away into blue*


Solid frozen
Sun in one's eyes
Open with a read from a storybook*

Smokey clouds, fire nearby
Cliff over trees
Rock sits in a cave*


Lily pad in the pond
Blue Heron flies westward
The tree in the reflection*

Sunlight shines through the trees
The cobweb dangles off the awning
The leaves are turning colour*


Blue moon reveals itself
Outline of the clouds
The waterfalls in the canyon*

Zen from beginning to end*

Zen from beginning to end*


Deep within the mountains a secret hides
It is so unknown that it is in its world that confides
Is it the trail or could be the trees?
What could this be that one does not see?
Well if one keeps moving to see where this goes
One will get to the summit and Now one definitely knows 


It is you..see it?


Dom*Colucci 2011

Come back and do it correctly*

Come back and do it correctly*


Making it solid as rock and cold as steel
Forging from hell, the ignorant wheel
One sided being with a one sided mind
Pushing its stupidity and thinking all is fine
Direction keeps losing from this one's center
Yes I mentioned it before, it is hell this one enters


Dom*Colucci 2011

Here, remember*

Here, remember*


If your life is under duress
And you have had it with your stress
Maybe you need to look within
This is the start where all begins
For you have never ever left this place
Here is the only place here, that is in your space 


Dom*Colucci 2011

Darkness in a cup*

Darkness in a cup*


Awakened from darkened dreams
I see the light and the day it seems
Though I move in this day willing and able
It is a cup of coffee that I see on the table
It gives me the jolt of my motivation
OK, I am ready to go with today's celebration


Dom*Colucci 2011

It fits here*

It fits here*


For it does not touch me but sees
It is within to allows me to be
I cannot see it but know its there
It is all about will with being well Aware
For the one that does know and moves along
Is the one of the Universe, the Soul, where it belongs

Reality in a whirlwind*

Reality in a whirlwind*


A walk on the path in the daylight
What do I see?...it's unreality sight
It is the wind that is creating leaves to fly
They look so alive in my mind's eye
The vortex shoots them from up to down
Landing once again to go round and round

Haikus for the road*

Haikus for the road*


Darkness has been walked through
Eyes opened, gray skies
Rain is music on the rooftop 


Dom*Colucci 2010



Bloom of the rose snipped
Light through the vase
Memory long gone Now


Dom*Colucci 2010



Smell the juniper
An ant finds its path
The acorn rolls down the hill


Dom*Colucci 2010



Crisp rain shower
Blowing breeze is alive
A sunflower cries

Dom*Colucci 2010

Night with jeweled skies, 
Sun lives in the clouds, 
sage sweeping with broom

Dom*Colucci 2010

Gate has opened,
Smell the apple pie in the window
The road kicks up its dust

Dom*Colucci 2010

Love of Haikus*

Love of Haikus*


The sun through the trees
The wind whispers
See the Truth here?


Dom*Colucci 2010



Clear night with no wind
Humble sound of sparrows
Cricket in coffee cup

Dom*Colucci 2010

Mood is set in vibrant tone
Open Universe allows
The rose sings beauty

Dom*Colucci 2010

Heat in the moment
Gentleness of orange rays
Lemon on the ground

Dom*Colucci 2010

Dark coffee in a cup
The scone is placed on the mat
The night shows the moon full

Dom*Colucci 2010

Babbling brook rolling
Stone pile near the edge
Holly Hocks dot the field

Dom*Colucci 2010

Haiku will do*

Haiku will do*


Darkened clouds, misty air
Dragon sips from the pond
Koi fish become playful

Dom*Colucci 2011

Wind in the doorway
Tea is served
The plum flower wilts

Dom*Colucci 2011

Sun orchestrates the clouds
Rain drops in the pond
The fence post stands alone

Dom*Colucci 2011

Eyes of sun
Corner in darkness
The table is broke*

Dom*Colucci 2011

Beam of light direct
Breeze through tall grasses
The mountain hides the clouds

Dom*Colucci 2011


Moment with a Haiku*

Moment with a Haiku*


Dotted landscape
Pinnacle in arrival
Tomorrow is too far*


Dom*Colucci 2011


Dream a tussle
One more step
Out of bed Awakened*


Dom*Colucci 2011



Moment caught still,
Sparrows sing away,
Wind embraces chimes*


Dom*Colucci 2011



Soft winds blow,
The chipmunk scurries by
The pine needle falls in the pond*


Dom*Colucci 2011



Sun bursts wide opening
Katydid calling
Pebbles in the pond

Haikus to feel with*

Haikus to feel with*


Nothingness touches
Emptying dimensional
Upright inward*


Dom*Colucci 2011


Foot prints direction
One step involved
Gone forever*


Dom*Colucci 2011


Placid pool
Warm desire at heart
Love entwines both*


Dom*Colucci 2011


Distance in time
Steps to the doorway
Obstacle walks away*


Dom*Colucci 2011



7 more Haikus for you*

7 more Haikus for you*


Open with wind
Sticks on the path
Eyes see clearly*

Dom*Colucci 2011



Waterfalls running
Memory fades
Source, Ocean of Life*

Dom*Colucci 2011



It returns
Either opposite
Conduit in the TAO*

Dom*Colucci 2011



Hole in the sky
Light fills the gap
Blue and vast forever*

Dom*Colucci 2011



Wind has succumbed
Pond has become calm
Meadowlark flies away*

Dom*Colucci 2011



Mountain stands alone
Breath has movement
Trees sway and rejoice*

Dom*Colucci 2011



Tea cup with one drop
Empty is at rest
Blue skies once again*

Dom*Colucci 2011








Scattered all over but still here*

Scattered all over but still here*


When one is thinking, one takes up to much time
This one is trying desperately to pull from the sublime
You cannot do such a thing, your energy is lost
Now you are tired, you paid it with a cost
Stop what you are doing and settle down with rest
Get in an easy way of ZAZEN and this will do you best

Oneness is rock solid*

Oneness is rock solid*


Jagged mountain cliff shows its face
Protruding outwards into space
Cliff of roughness nothing smooth in sight
Wholeness in nothing to make it so right
Climb this site if you see it fit
It will look at you and match its wits


Dom*Colucci 2011

Awareness sees nothing but knows*

Awareness sees nothing but knows*


Who was that that was not there?
Was it an attached shadow not well Aware?
Did it have substance and was it filled?
You know for a fact it was not intended will
It has disappeared into oblivion as it is no longer
Now stick in your Conscious Awareness and make it stronger
