The Garden of Temporary Haiku

april 10

Through slow purple air
Hope spirals gently downward
Evaporating leaves.

Even underground
Numinous joy surrounds us
Drowned in mystery

Even underground
Numinous joy surrounds us
Drowned in mystery

march 24

Through slow purple air
Hope spirals gently downward
Evaporating leaves.

march 22

Open the old book
Return to the way it was,
Empty and silent

march 21

Bargaining for grace
Every single prayer cashed in
For one last meeting

march 20

Here is the center:
Each journey comes to this place.
Remember the dream

march 19

Keeping watch all night
The coals fall into ashes
Outside the Airstream

march 18

They gather to wait.
Along the shores of the lake
Lanterns glow softly
