Intense Moment



Some intense moment awakened my muse

and touched a parchment with a sleepy pen

in rising moon light.

A few random words became grandiose

with thoughts of you,

yet the lotus blossoms and essence of pears

no longer render me helpless.

My dreams of you whisper to each other;

I can hear every word.

It is you, reading sutra.

In the soft light of the yellow spring,

I scented a poem with lemongrass,

and tied it with ribbon.

The tall flowers by the garden pond

take strange shapes and shadows,

pulling me toward the land of

your ancestors.

If only their spirits could speak to me,

a woman of the sun and sand,

what would they say?
