Withering Flowers
|
|
Withered flowers
Die and live, live and die; Seamless unfolding. |
Thalassa
|
|
A southern cloud
Now covers the whole earth; Compassionate rain. |
Songthrush
|
|
Old and motionless-
Songthrush with fluffed feathers; Written in black ink. |
Deep Alchemy
|
|
Looking deeper still
Within; the ancient mirror, Gone, suddenly gone. |
Momonkan
|
|
Dripping ambrosia,
Iridescent humming bird; Glad song in the ear. |
Mu #2
|
|
Even emptiness
Empties itself inside out; Our cups overflow! |
Mu
|
|
Now this new bright face
Shines in the emptiness; Thus! All is so clear. |

Hanging Garden (emptiness)
|
What are all these marks?
Thus comes the Tathagata; Bright hanging garden. |
