swirls upward to heaven

Flowers Of Time

do not doubt it,

the bay has its spring too, 

the flowers of the tide 

(~ Basho)

which bloom in salty winds

carried secretly by time

Rumbling winter storm – 

Ents are dancing with their wives – 

ancient limbs entwined

(~ Paloma)

I join in their wild dance

around the embers warm

such a still water

even the dragonfly

splash it with the tail

sailing my paper boat

I dream of a distant voyage

in the sacred grove: 

a cool wind blows

to holy chant

covered in parables

looming in dark
