‘The morning gray closes in…’

November 23, 2013November 23, 2013 Andrew Taggart

Words that came to me during morning meditation moments before a philosophical conversation recently:

*

The morning gray closes in,

and I cannot see the mountain.

I do not know you thus,

but might I find you still

by some other route?

I close my eyes,

and mumble your name.

Soon I forget it.

‘Milky birds…’

November 19, 2013 Andrew Taggart

Words that came to me during morning meditation moments before a philosophical conversation recently:

*

Milky birds

Seaweed tree

Breathing gneiss

/

Be, all you, all me,

but a single stroke

of life.

‘Swaying reeds…’

November 18, 2013 Andrew Taggart

Words that came to me during morning meditation moments before a philosophical conversation on Sunday:

*

Swaying reeds

like hanging beans

Through you

I see the mountains.

‘Breathing sun…’

November 14, 2013 Andrew Taggart

Words that came to me during morning meditation moments before a philosophical conversation:

*

1

Breathing sun

Swinging gate

Whistling turn…

 2

O breathing sun

O swinging gate

breathe and whistle me till

you whirl and whistle me

into you.
