Journey Forth

In our garden there are roses of many varieties
Variations of color, stock, and form.
The sun inspires the rain to fall

and gives each flower a bloom.

The Garden is growing

The Garden's growing

and so is Buttercup.

Zazen on Ching-t’ing Mountain

The birds have vanished down the sky.
Now the last cloud drains away.
We sit together, the mountain and me,
until only the mountain remains.
