on the valley trail

a person walking looks small —

fresh new leaves!

During a weekend drive on the back roads of eastern Wyoming, we found ourselves invited to wander about this abandoned home and ponder what dreams once filled these rooms.

My happiness

                I find

In filling my emptiness.

My emptiness

                I create

In seeking happiness.

OLD FORM

Did Chuang Chou dream

he was a butterfly,

Or the butterfly

that it was Chuang Chou?

In one body’s

metamorphoses,

All is present,

infinite virtue!

betweennessblog

You surely know

Fairlyland’s oceans

Were made again

a limpid brooklet,

Down at Green Gate

the melon gardener

Once used to be

Marquis of Tung-ling?

Wealth and honour

were always like this:

You strive and strive,

but what do you seek?

To my children

On a frosty night
