The fourteenth Dalai Lama
Sits on the earth,
he looks at the benevolence of its temples
and his smiles are birds in the sky.
He is apart, he is enlightened
and the light of his steps
returns the less dark ground.

His face is serene
cause he knows that the earth
will continue to spin around
although think of it the soldiers.

When Chineses invade Tibet
the fourteenth dalai lama
invades the minds,
Then he sits in the sky
above his most precious horse :
Peace.

If I ever have a precious horse come into my life, Yann,

Yann,

I'd capitalize "Dalai Lama", and "Tenzin Gyatso". This expresses a nice idea.

BRAVO! I have much respect for this human, and wish for all Tibetans to be free to worship/live as they please.
