Vanavaccha
The color of blue-dark clouds, glistening,
cooled with the waters
of clear-flowing streams
covered with ladybugs:
…those rocky crags
…refresh me.
I shared this poem on my own blog on Friday, but loved it so much, I’d like to share it here as well.
It’s taken from the Theragatha, a collection of 264 poems in which the early monks recount their struggles and accomplishments along the path to enlightenment.
Gorgeous. Thank you Joseph.
(Sorry I’m still unable to post – just too busy! But thank YOU for all your wonderful posts mate!)
Quite gorgeous, as Marcus says.
On the other hand i always get stressed by mountains in front of me , having the feeling i have to run and climb them to finally get a clear view around. maybe it is because my zodiac sign is ‘balance’ – an air element;)
you’d be pleased to find there’s a cable car that brings you nearly to the top of that hill.
the main peak is a long, long hike though! ^_^
what about a seaside next time? =
Sure! ^_^
