A Morning Poem

[Miki Yamuri]

A Morning Poem

To ride the wind, follow the willow the wisp
To hear the trees whisper softly of times and times

Bejeweled grasses on the golden dawn
Spiders webs sparkle as woven by fairy's hand
G_D's smile spreads across the land

Oh where oh where is the place butterfly go to die?
The laughing brook tells its tale
While the wise owl hoots
Where the glistening waters go

Many a legion trod the path
Time and times
Wheels within wheels
Who can say what a spirit feels

Oh to find the sacred place
Once again to don
The wonder of the place
Of childhood's grace

Adulthood gone
A real about face
Butterfly song
The wonderful pursuit ... the thing we chase
