She is weeping for
a dance with love and warm
closeness in the night.

I usually read one or two poetry books a year but today I find myself reading three at the same time.

Each Happiness Ringed By Lions by Jane Hirshfield - Re-read Jane has a sweet Zen non-dualist view and applies it to her poetry.

In the Dark, Soft Earth by Frank Watson - Frank is a new discovery and his poetry is devine. It touchs that place that is tickled by the universe when in the arms of sweet meditation. Only I get to have my eyes wide open and a book in my hands. Review copy given to me by the publisher.

Haiku, Volume 2: Spring by R.H. Blyth - Reginald's four volume exposè on haiku is magical. It is very traditional but heart warming all the same. I'm learning tons.
