Also the mountains
wear masks of mist, nod at one
another, and pass.
*
The poppies : brimming
cupfuls of sun, like children
running from sparklers.
*
Koan : consider
how a dog wears no clothes but
pants and pants and pants.
*
On Mt. Barnabee :
bumblebees in the blossoms,
barns in the valleys.
*
All of these days we've
spent in quarantine have gone
to form one pearl.
*
As for the mountain
itself, it keeps on climbing
via its flowers.
*
Inspired by the
butterflies, the butter flies
into the cat's mouth.
*
On Mt. Barnabee,
amongst the grasses I am
just another head.
*
If I would have known
it would be this beautiful,
I'd have brought more beer.
*
Along with a few
million gallons of water
the reservoir holds
the idea of a lake.
*
If the clouds are wool
there must be some awfully
big sheep in heaven.
