White lotus opens
pure spirit born in the mud
arise crowned by stars
Awakening greets
shadows upon the green leaves
a fanning network
Flower captures dawn
surprise in the lily pond
still open all night
Nature's spirit lives
connecting all existence
celestial song
Dragonflies and frogs
rest upon the wide green leaves
koi adore blossoms
Pearly petals crown
then reign in quiet beauty
among lily pads
Rainbow snake arise
ignite the mystical bloom
Cosmos sharing light
Silent white lotus
spirit questing innerlight
listen to my soul
A stone filled with light
anchors the mundane overcome
by the white lotus
Centered in petals
the infinite soul's sacred
journey radiates
Lessons from a bloom
white lotus meditations
universal calm
Nature's heart beats and
flows in constant balance as
life begins or ends
Knowledge is power
to understand perceptive
accepting is wise
White lotus spirit
arise and greet awakened
inner horizons
To touch the Divine
lotus unfolding within
infinity's gift
Passive violet flame
sparks breathless cosmic seed
births breathing nectar
Bountiful spirit
how a beautiful flower
elevates my thoughts
