I question a local boy under a pine.
He says, "Teacher is gathering herbs
right here on the mountain...
But who can say where?
The mountain is thick with clouds."

Pleasant Valley [Lyric Poem]
In the narrow valley
Traversed by a cool stream,
Life is but a pleasant,
And ever shady, dream.
Feet within the waters,
But mind up in the sky,
Nothing can upend one,
Nor kill what cannot die.

spring green to the right;
tawny stalk stubble on the left
a seasonless dreamworld?

Dancing Shadows[Haiku]
a barren tree
paints dancing shadows
on the sandy canyon.
