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 ...

The Germination Song

Well before I saw the first bud of the year

Had begun to open

I heard the first plink

Of the germination song


You know spring first

By the sounds rising

In the back yard

The dogs barking 

Amidst the rising chorus

Of birdsong

It won’t be long now


And I swear I can

Hear the gears turning

Deep in the soil

As the year begins

To sing along


Out of sight the gears

Of the new year have begun

To turn in the soil


Things coming along

The germination song

It won’t be long now
