Monkey Chatter Mind

 
It's a grand June day,
Full of green and bright sunshine,
And rushing thoughts.
 
 Objects disappear
In the translucent green leaves;
Only light remains.




Shiny and useless
Snow shovel rests against wall,
Waiting for winter.

A burst of color
Flashes out from the roadside:
Early summer blooms.




Flickering ripples
Hidden by greenery:
The dark forest stream.



The mailbox just sits
As ivy twists around it.
Nothing to be done.




From high on the hill
Voices float down to the road--
Soft sounds but no words.





Monkey chatter mind
Carves up this soft sunny walk
Into limbo pieces.





Slender flower swans
Meeting high above the ground
Bow translucent heads.
