With palms together,
Good Afternoon Everyone,
We have a very windy day here in southern New Mexico. The swing on the back patio was lifted and thrown against the house, creating a small hole in our wall. Looking out, looking in. Meditation and Ygoa at TBE at 4:00 today.
_____________
Wind
Tumbleweed
create a sangha
in the walled corner,
gathering
near Buddha
like so many disciples.
Dry and lifeless
stiff and prickly.
This is how they roll.
Is this what it means
to be aimless?
No.
Look within and see
the seed
grasping to earth
in a flow
as a handless wand
spreads stardust.
A breath.
Be well.
