borders

immigrants like us
looking for food, finding fences…
what land of the free?

Winter Solstice 2001


peace by tender piece

may all hearts be restored to
the light of the world

Sunday, June 6, 2010

whoever you may be

enter here, come pray
come again, vow or no vow
come, all but despair

Call to Prayer, Konya

Mother Goddess, Catal Hoyuk

on the Silk Road

Cappadocia moon-
my ancestors followed you
turned right, found Sweden.

Temple of Mother Ocean

Where I Go To Rest

two squawking blue jays
ruin my meditation
on love for all things


6-21-99

in the name of God

three world religions
were born in the Middle East-
they are to die for

Nine Day Retreat 10-09

1.
going on retreat-
there is so much to do
to get ready to do nothing

2.
I go on retreat
to find out what I'm thinking
and then let it go

3.
Buddhist teaching: a variation

how to be mindful
and lose weight at the same time:
renunciation

4.
a sky full of stars
gives way to morning as I
breath in and breath out

5.
my job at the retreat

I sweep the leaves
as more leaves fall
I sweep the leaves

6.
steam off the rooftop
evaporates like my thoughts
in meditation

7.
Spirit Rock

you think the blue sky
couldn't get any bluer
and then it does

For the Love of Women
