mouth of white stones
geisha melting heart beats
into waterfalling eyes

fingers are but black circles
there are snow sided winters
closer to her memory than a lover

and the wind moves lotus scent
she is as decaying blossoms
but her bones are young jade

the tombs of yao have no sand
nothing from dust ever returns
since time is a momentary window

to which the blind man turns his back

daark  do (dough) of jade sigh...geisha tending the stone garden tribute of lost budo love..

How precious this is! Again there is this sacred atmosphere and the depth of your thought rendered with poetic perfection.

Will read this again, it is hauntingly beautiful.

Love,

in her book of dreams
she practices night waiting
for hatsu hana.

ms indi..she waits for spring
as winter is born
will her fence keep her warm
when the coals of his voice linger
just over a nodding horizon

thank you babe!
