Poems by Dr. Wangmo are written and inspired by life’s candid and hidden mysteries. When the fabric of potentiality is tapped into much of the Dakini force moves through to produce wonderful results, including the written words. The rhyme happens naturally and the poetry is mostly soft. There are heavier topics of death dressed with the focus on Buddha Dharma, and the passionate red mandala of the Dakini is represented with the wisdom of the moments’ unfolding. These poems inspired by Earth and earth traditions are designed to stimulate the elements of air, water, fire, and earth to balance within our bodies. There is a medicinal effect to the mind and to the body from reading this written art. We hope you enjoy and share with many other people.
