Roxane Spar Poems

We are all children of the universe
We may be born lucky or of pity
We can each write our own verse
Take the best of life and be happy

Olwen is composed of “Ol” which means “footprint” or “track”
And “Wen” or “Gwen” which means “fair”, “blessed”, or “white”
Olwen was a princess in the Welsh mythology
She lived a long time ago in a land of fairy

Respect, but don’t fight for your partner
Be grateful, but don’t fight for your instructor
It’s your fight, make it yours
Even if, of all the techniques, you’re still unsure
...

Let me tell you about this martial arts school
Full of the spirit of quality, and cheerful
I go there to train my body and mind
To leave my stress and fatigue behind

In a foreign land of steppes and snow
A baby boy is left in sorrow
Born from an unknown love
He will have to wait to get love

I wish I were a world of beauty
That you would want to explore entirely
To my port you would berth your vessel
For a halt along your travel

I close my eyes and begin my journey
To my inner world, my truth, my reality
To the tempo of my breath, forgetting time
I go down deep, to the deepest layers of my mind
...

Gliding through the air in silence
Beyond the sky immense
Past is gone, I don’t think of tomorrow
Peaceful mind, I just let go
...

As far as you can look in the galaxy
Have you yet found a planet like me?
You know I am a rare jewel, bright and alive
Unlike other bodies you see, desolated and dry
