Talked to all 3 sons today
           ordinary life
                 xie xie

I've been to Israel
The wedding was quite nice
Another wedding in Tokyo
Ate the Japanese rice

Lovely Susan Meek
You don't have to ask me twice
Dark hair, blue eyes
I'd like to roll the dice

                    7!

Just one of the people
     Sad. Solo. Sons.
             Writing

Just one life
Then eternal silence
                 Oh!

After my mom died
Nothing right anymore
Not in Toledo, Ohio
Not in Baltimore

The silence is maternal
It doesn't ever end
O ye sacred silence!
Silence be my friend

                 Amen.

Tokyo to Kyoto
Upon the Shinkansen

3772
San Francisco Zen

Not a question of if
More a question of when

Will I too disappear
Like I've never ever been?

Grateful for peace when it comes
                        Breath
                           Rest
