Joy…
glowing leaves
fallen to the ground
like those words of old–
glowing leaves

light remains…in the leaves
the sun goes down—
but evening light remains
in the leaves

still autumn is here…
the sun beats down
but still autumn is here
in morning dew

who paints the image
Who speaks the sound of an echo?
Who paints the image in a mirror?
Where are the spectacles in a dream?
Nowhere at all — that’s the nature of mind!

cattails at sunset
I cast the brush aside
from here on I’ll speak to the moon
face to face

surfing canadian geese…
making waves
in Horsetooth Reservoir
into my heart…
I was alone on a sunny shore
by the forest’s pale blue lake,
in the sky floated a single cloud
and on the water a single isle.
The ripe sweetness of summer dripped
in beads from every tree
and straight into my open heart
a tiny drop ran down.

weekly photo challenge: angular
This week Xiao Yu offers a photo challenge at The Daily Post: “Not to put too fine a point on it, though this week, we challenge you to show us what “angular” means to you… It might mean the corner on which you live or the intersection of sea and sky at 180 degree angle. Angular also offers a chance to shoot from an entirely new perspective: from above, below, or even from the margins of the fray…”
fluttering
leaf alone, fluttering
alas, leaf alone,
fluttering…
fluttering down the wind
