Simon Rogerson Poet Free verse

Komorebi karma

Dull clouds are backdrop for another dreary day
Glancing around, he sets off on his daily walk 
Tree umbrellas cast dark shadows across woodland floors
Mist swirls around trunks, glides across glades
He walks on as shafts of sunlight beckon change
Clouds recede, warmth and light strengthen
Bright streaks pierce treescape
He marvels at shadows dancing with light
Such spontaneous pleasure warms body and soul
Reminds him life is too short to live in shadows
Komorebi karma strikes
