Ronald Dahl: PRAYER WHEELS/ON MY FATHER’S SIDE

__________________________

prayer wheels

on my father’s side

it’s all redwoods, fully

the climate of that &

how footfalls echo

thru the earth, stilling

quiet tremors of a heart

feeling for that longing.

little-golden-o

the womb that bore me

now but ash, the steady

diet of words remains

nourishing, honed. &

whittled to an essense

thru practice – what tuning

is in a long birth of patience.

little-golden-o1

it is the space of events

that one is within -

forming the whole of it

which is a thing in itself

yet no thing but being

in continuity, whether

or not you might notice.

little-golden-o2

That which is irritating

remains perhaps unhealed

perhaps accommodated

pervious as background

music in an elevator when

some sudden healing pie

cosmic pie he said, hits home.

little-golden-o3

anybody ever tell you

about a deeper truth

right there within it all &

the all I mean is The All

quietly inclusive, including

the web suspended among

filaments of cosmic dust?
