Falling Star.

Marvelous Work

Sometimes out here,

the stars are so close

that I have to

duck my head

as I reach out

to pat them

on the shoulder, 

commending them,

for all 

of their

marvelous

work.

Falling Star 

There is no turning back 

for a falling star.

And,

just look

at what beauty 

catches our breath

and 

lights

the

skies,

as something

disappears

into

itself

A Child Sees

Who saw the medicine in the leaf?

 

We could wonder the origin or we could

make tea and drink its remedy—

for this forgetfulness.

 

When the door of wisdom is opened

there is no need to scramble

for the right information

or confirmation.

 

Learning takes on a new life.

 

She said to me:

You must release the old ways

to embrace as a child sees.
