Six Pilgrim Poems

Six Pilgrim Poems
In the Park
Belly full of chi
sky with gentle rain waters
dancers like flowers
My Dzogchen Realization
“Ah, Ah” says Raven
in play, in jest, proclaiming
primordial sound
The Way
Alone I wander.
Too tired to climb the peaks
I settle into the valley
Following the way.
Emeishan
In the mountain clouds
the peaks remain elusive
while trees dance and breathe.
On the Way
On the way
all effort
is exhausted in the doing
This Dream
simple and complete
everything is everything
in this dream of ours
(first published in my third book of poems, SUN MADE FLESH AND FIBER, 2019)
