Bamboo Veil 5

BAMBOO VEIL 5


Ancient tree
Weathered wisdom;
Stillness presides

~~~~~~~~~


Dawn hurls
Sparkling buzz;
Illumination

~~~~~~~~~


Old man sits
Observes happenings;
Walkway detour

~~~~~~~~~


Toddlers congregate
Playground frolic;
Glee greets wonder

~~~~~~~~~


Hawker food
Queues winding;
Mealtime economics

~~~~~~~~~


Modern day buddha
Meditative moods;
Dazzling radiance

~~~~~~~~~


Cease to desire
Empty concessions;
Seize enlightenment

~~~~~~~~~


Church sermon
Grace instructs;
Truth sets free

~~~~~~~~~


There is a law
Beyond our flaws;
Love heals

~~~~~~~~~
