Blooming

A realm of creatures
Vegetation lives timidly

It is not
Meadows, alpine, dotted, lightly trodden

Do you see the image of an old man
Arranging thin sticks?

No mystery
This piece-by-piece accumulation

Enjoyment : the coin's ridge
Not the ringing, collapsing pile

A drop soaks
Drowning is dry

Grasp a seed
Only view a flower

this strikes me as profoundly magical.
The imagery is tantalizing and very hard to put down.

Best,
