Notes About The Poem

 

OF AND IN POETIC GARDENING

(Apropos Of A Tanka Flow)

 

First, plow free your mind,

Then sow liberating seeds;

Letting others reap:-

Cultivating mentally,

Fertilizes destiny:-

 

Gardening poets,

Continue to plow and sow

Inspiring word-seeds:

Germinating reaped wisdom

Fruited with navigation:-

 

Poetic farmers,

Laboring in works of love,

Keep nourishing us

With those cistern-juices flow

From your gardens’ word-fruits:- 

 

Through this vast world,

In the onederful oneness

Of fruiting onement,

Praises to farming poets,

Flowing fruiting fullness:-
