The Journey to the West

Though we journey to the West We pray to the East More or less that's the way Each day begins and ends It’s a tale everyone ...

Primavera Praecox

With last week’s string
Of sixty degree days
The hyacinth and daffodils  
Broke ground 
In my neighbor’s yard
It’s still February 
And today the wind
Has shifted back north
Putting a universal chill 
On the ardor for life
Over the next few weeks
I guess we’ll proceed
To play hide and seek with
Rebirth and senescence
It’s easy to see how
Any flower or bud or
Kindred spirit among us
Could end up feeling
Hopelessly confused
