River of Diamonds

[Myozan Kodo]

Sometimes it stops
And you see it.
A vision of reality,
Right there around you.
The trees moving in wind.
The bird crossing the sky.
The clouds passing.
And you right there,
Part of it.
Now.

Unending richness.
Spectacular parade.
The svaha
When consciousness drops,
Opens and reveals
A river of diamonds,
As plentiful as grains of sand
In all the rivers of the earth.

PS: the river of diamonds is also the name of the tiny stitches sewn close to the ties on a large Okesa.
