Zen Garden

In his eyes, the waters,
prisms of shifting light –
clearly, mystical in-sight,
rest for weary gazers.

Mirthful with friend wind,
in dances as ancient as air,
they sweep star-studded sands,
charm the jagged stones.

Beyond, a cambered view,
mountains crest in tiers
belonging to, of earth
lasting as life.

Above, a cloudless sky
a cool dip of invitation,
into his garden
of Zen.

This presented a vision with such imagery, Corinne, you really said it well.

What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life.

Corinne, nice to see you post. Sounds like an interesting garden the way you describe it. It probably a metaphor for something else but i'm a little dense with metaphores...
