Pilgrim’s Journey
Are you the lad who took the journey East
to the land of the rising Sun?
He walked from the North waters heading East
clutching a mariner’s compass in the right hand
an earthenware jar of gold shimmer in the left
a cherry blossom on his maroon coat planted by
his mother.
Childhood is a box of matches
on a yellow dusted leaf
of jaundiced ginkgo bonsai
waiting to be torched by time.
We sieve the days of grey clouds hovering a
fruit farm
letting the rains soak our souls with evanescent
abandonment.
