This Zen-poem stems from the intellect of Ms Ecker's creative intellect. I was honored to be invited along for the write.
a transient from the endless circus,
eyeing a prickly pear catus flower.
Meditating upon its ephemeral beauty,
he asks the eternal question:
Fleeting flower of yellow and pink,
is the will to charm still there?
My son, how could I not
be charmed by your
exquisite roar, followed by
the delicate blooming of your innocence?
Then remember me that I
may remember our predicament!

Crusty Old Lion --- A collaboration of Suzanne Ecker & Brian Oarr
He sits atop the fence,a transient from the endless circus,
eyeing a prickly pear catus flower.
Meditating upon its ephemeral beauty,
he asks the eternal question:
Fleeting flower of yellow and pink,
is the will to charm still there?
My son, how could I not
be charmed by your
exquisite roar, followed by
the delicate blooming of your innocence?
Then remember me that I
may remember our predicament!
