A Poem For Monday

Clear running stream

clear running stream

Your water is light

to my mouth

And a light to my dry body

your flowing

Music,

in my ears.  free,

Flowing free!

With you

in me.

—-Gary Snyder,  Water Music II

In the words of Dogen:  How is it with us who are walking on the mountains that are walking?
