You can hear them
When you hike the forest
Tiny waterfalls with their songs
Month: October 2017
A day in October
If not hiking in the forest
ride a mountain bike
add colors to October.
Autumn Day
My Friday walk to the river
walkers and dogs are sluggish
the tide is so slow, twigs and leaves
are hardly moving on the water
one doesn’t have to be a hippie
to change the world
few limber steps, whistle a Beatles’s tune
tomorrow I will see a friend
drive to the coast, visit an oyster farm.
note: pieces of a mango I will have for breakfast.
Hiding place
Juxtaposition
Her line of vision is diverted
a bird chasing a helicopter
a juxtaposition in space makes
her imagined moment real:
two lovers arriving at different places
mistaking them as their rendezvous
finding a new scenery they wander
as if they are together
playing separate strings.

Understanding
Listen, begin the understanding
Empty your heart for new experiences
The garden is in bloom.
Sanctuary
Be still
in your sacred grove
bursting with colors
Hiking & consequences
Hiking in the mountains in Incline Village, Nevada will build your muscles including the heart and enriched your mind. Maybe even your soul. Last Saturday and Sunday we met other walkers and mountain bikers. Stones and boulders are strewn everywhere. The trail have switchbacks in some areas. There are two view points to see Lake Tahoe.
Sunday hike
First Things
Extend a rope
climb the obstacle
First thought to start a hundred
Ant rests on a pebble
A runner sits on a boulder
Sheep grazing
Fisherman and trout meditate the river
waiting for enlightenment
A grain of sand
in the mind of the universe
My soul inside the spirit of God
who feels my presence
Green, blue
a pool in the middle of a forest
I edge myself to solitude
emptying myself bare
Yucca adventures in a desert
a thought to start a sentence
Cairn point a way
An ant moves
The runner resumes running
I ease my way to clarity
inch by inch by inch.
