October Processional



(Part of the series:  Cannabis, and Creative Cognition.   Reference Leafly.com "Romulan")

The flight of a lonely seagull, crying,
across a westering sky,
seems a cosmic metaphor
with the meaning not quite clear.

The clarity of the harbour’s reach,
bending with lodestone truth
towards a hidden sea:
frozen moment in a transient beauty.

Thoughts skip to and fro
across a multi-dimensional Rorschach,
sometimes winning credibility:
more often not.

It seems that Autumn has arrived.
She brings her own time,
and colours her personal agenda
with crisp memories of peace.

Welcome, and Namaste

Greetings fellow travellers,

For you American friends visiting, you will notice that this old Canadian uses Canadian English in this blog: kindly bear with me. As I blog primarily on subjects that are vitally interesting to me, I appreciate all feedback.

As I tend to be a bit of a language usage freak, I will, as required, edit obscenity and rude comments. That said, I welcome your opinions and discussion.

May your Dharma be clear

Peace

"If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended:
That you have but slumb'red here,
While these visions did appear."
