''A Ripple In Time'': a Sequence of Cosmic Tankas
A ripple in time,
we are here for a moment
like fleeting vapors
in this vast, great universe--
members of a divine God.
Into the night sky
I gaze, awed by space and time
and the wide expanse
of the Milky Way, a dot
among endless galaxies.
They spin and swirl in
a dance in the gaping voids
of space and blackness,
their light coming to us from
a time before our Earth formed.
A ripple in time,
we are here for a moment
like fleeting vapors
in this vast, great universe--
members of a divine Whole.
