Rainy day, perfect time for a nap, wish I were home.

Gautama

There is a story that tells of a poor young boy who, having nothing to give the Buddha as a gift, collected a handful of dust and innocently presented it. The Buddha smiled and accepted it with the same graciousness he would accept a gift from a wealthy admirer.

In approximately 486 BC, at the age of 80, the Buddha died. He held in his hand a simple pouch of faded doeskin. Before he passed, he emptied the small bag of dust into the breeze, quietly laughing.

His last words are said to be:

Impermanent are all created things;

Strive on with awareness.

Bye Bye Blackbird

Hey Chris, thanks for playing Miles Davis over the phone.

Splitrock Part Deux

Birch leaves clatter

Cattails exhale

Whitehawks screak

The breeze keens

In a cormorant's wings

Spread out to dry

Woodsmoke and beaver musk

Sweetbrier and wild grape

The pickerel scent of lake shallows

When wind gusted wavelets

Spatter the rocks

C'est Magnifique! Splitrock Reservoir

Looking for turtles

I find lotus:

Blossoms in the sun;
buds in the shade
