Anchor solidly to the earth,
Trees reaching to stars.
My interest in Zen poetry goes back a number of years. My early attempts focussed on Haiku and were very mechanical, and I must admit, I did not see much beyond the mechanics. I just tried to center myself and come up with something cool. I remember writing this one completely indoors, away from any windows, int he middle of the day. I like how it came out.
As well this was part of an art project I attempted in which I would write a poem and then illustrating it in some fashion.
