and taste fruits from the Tree of Life.

riverrun from swerve of shore
to bend of bay

Bye Bye Baby! It's outta here!
and the goose is out!— Robin Redbreast,

See Sunrise, 7th Heaven, Samurai Trilogy,
Kamakura Buddha swept to the sea—
Boom! Vroom! Zoom! Bazooka!

Can't do the Hokey Pokey or Boogie-woogie
but could dance the Sufi Spin & Emmelia—
Pythagoras, Plato, Plotinus, Porphyry, Proclus

and dream the impossible dream,

the Love that moves the sun and other stars.

Ah Ha! — Abracadabra! Alakezam!
More light! Brighter than 1000 suns—
PB's blessing: "May Peace Be With You!"

Astonish me— amazement, attention, awareness,
imagination, insight, illumination,
serenity, serendipidity, tranquility,
Om Narayana! Om Shanti Shanti Shanti.
