Sigh

Pale flowers and a naked tree.
An empty sky above misty drops
and a deep single -
sigh....!!

What?
You must be kidding, I'm not trembling;
(let me pretend)
its a lovely lovely evening.

Over the Phone

A cloudy evening : Westminister Bridge, London

Teachings

" No man can reveal to you aught
but that which already lies half asleep
in the dawning of our knowledge.
The teacher who walks in the shadow of the temple,
among his followers, gives not of his wisdom
but rather of his faith and his lovingness.
If he is indeed wise he does not
bid you enter the house of wisdom,
but rather leads you
to the threshold of your own mind.

For the vision of one man lends
not its wings to another man.
And even as each one of you stands alone
in God's knowledge,
so must each one of you be alone
in his knowledge of God and
in his understanding of the earth."

~Khalil Gibran : Prophet~
