i.
tired monk
heaves himself up
sighs rounds to do
late night monastery check:
fire stoked
tea poured
temple dogs snore
temple cat bored
all is well
rounds done
ii.
unhinge battered guitar case
for battered guitar
tune
capo
pick
strum
deep in post rounds meditation
So glad you found that old guitar. They can be a wonderful form of active meditation.

Oh I love it, the rounds, the temple dog, the temple cat, the strumming.........so many days I wish I lived in a monastery:)
ReplyDeleteGreat one OO. Instead of a robe, a down jacket...instead of sandals, steel toed work boots...instead of a meditation stick, a hockey stick.
ReplyDeleteI've been caught between space and time. Pages of a book. Sometimes short. Sometimes long. But never been caught between the melodies of song.
