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!

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…”weeklyphotochallengeangle

Mountain temple:

far as the pillow where I lie

the willow sheds its flowers.
