Temple Hopping 

Selfies red seal books

Attest to our attainment
Why have we come here?

Temple Shots: We All Should be Inoculated 

Kannon looms over

Compassion eternally

Our need is endless


Humid Kyoto Afternoon

Sweat on my brow pours 

Not unlike the stream flowing

To the peaceful lake


Seeing Shades

Green is the last color

Green upon green upon green

What do I see now

Unseen Yet Everywhere

Worlds in rocks and roots
Time ever more encroaching on
Whatever we have left.


The Path to Enlightenment

Intent makes us go

Until we are lost again

And in the next place.


Boddhisatvas and Buddhas

One in the same name

Saving all beings at home

And where they may roam.
