awakening

Awakened, I hear the one true thing--
Black rain on the roof of Fukakusa temple
~Dogen


awakened,  i hear
the only sound to reach my heart
mourning doves cooing

arising, i feel
sunday soul kept me sleeping
past spirit sunrise

walking, i do see
sparkling light hitting every
fleur,  budding green tree

blessing all i know
and all left to know on earth
for breathing in this mirth
