Everywhere
soft breeze warm sunshine
the same calm
even the withered trees
on the dark cliff
are blossoming
I tried to find
where Subhuti*
meditates
but suddenly in the shadow
of mist and fog
the path split a thousand ways.

*Subhūti was one of the Ten Great Śrāvakas of Śākyamuni Buddha, and foremost in the understanding of emptiness.
