Humble and Bright


How do I live
in harmony with the Tao?
How do I follow
"God's will" for me?
How do I stay within
the currents of the divine?

Just watch and follow
what is humble and bright.

Investiture

Slowly the shadow of the roof
Sails across the hayloft
Tossing its cowboy hat
Into the ring.

Could be there’s a lasso
For buried walnuts,
Fine tuning on a pitchfork
Before Sunday hymnals.

Or sense, burnished by cinnamon
Incense, garnishes leaves
For deep affection
Beneath the mulch.
