i wrote this this morning
while on retreat
with my sibling clerics.
as they say the early
poet gets the verse
a tanka

~30~




yellow sun rising
over misty hardwood bush
welcoming autumn
low flying wild geese salute
the dawn of a new season

This is so short, but yet so full! Of images of autumn as well as images of change in general. Very well done!
