The World Around ~ Three Tanka ~

THE SONG OF THE BEING


radiant red hibiscus, ah!
solitary seer of sacred dawn,
what ancient song
wells up today, fierce in
your invisible fire-soul?

A QUANDARY RESOLVED ~


I was in a quandary
wondering what to do~
the gentle Tulsi leaves
nodded in sweet approval ~
I instantly knew exactly what to~

WONDER DAY


splendour storm terror ~
thunder lightening silences ~
Buddha worlds burst open ~
Mighty Kaali dumb-founds ~
I glow vast in pure rapture ~
