the star, the child, the light returns the darkness will not win completely nor will the green dragon entirely devour the sun what is this softness that will not take no for an answer that penetrates and masses like love in an empty heart? Buddha has seen the morning star dawns purple and then gold in the snowy mountains your hands flicker like sunlight among candles children sit down in the streets they buy peace with their blood it shines on the gloomy pavement our prayers envelope us like a crystal sphere in which we all are moving
