    sun bleached sand
    waves roaring
    whispering peace

    jade satin oaks
    running down
    the mountain pass

    poplar and juniper
    clinging the deluge
    entwined in death

    Gasshō,

    There is a very simple way to become Buddha. Do not commit unwholesome actions; be without attachment to life and death; show profound compassion for all sentient beings; respect those above and have pity for those below; do not have a heart of likes and dislikes, aversions or desires, nor thoughts and worries about things. This is to become Buddha. Do not search someplace else.

    –Dōgen, Shōji

      ARTS: Your Haiku!

      Wonderful and bright.

      Scintillating with sight more
      Than my ballad head canrealize
      I grow old, how much my heart
      Slows!

        From July 2023

        Issa steps where Joshu falls
        Bright blue sky
        Vulture circles
        Children play with hula hoops

          One more. I write Haiku weekly. More to come. This is a great space.

          Morning breeze brushes
          Clover hayfield’s hair
          Blowing raked leaves
          Bassho laughs

            an idle sea
            quiet ripples conceal
            sunsets lost and found

            swashbuckling fronds
            the wind’s great howl
            raindrops blush to know the storm

              Sing of warm weather
              In February all is brown
              Remembering mother in her garden.

                a moment of awakening
                the fridge is purring
                thoughts hasten back

                      the pale winter sky

                          Miss Emily let me stand in wind
                          Late March, I wither away bud on vine
                          Oh Miss Emily let me in your front door.


                          Wordsworth was not Japanese approaching
                          Midnight, roars each huff of snow I cower, I'm afraid
                          Why should Haiku be five seven five of ice or snow

                          Believe in coming of green spring though
                          There be ice on this vine, though wind rough,
                          My collar, chill my neck, blast hands with ice

                              Spring here once again

                                This wind propels
                                Spring into blooms of
                                Red rose, white flowers.
