smooth like a breeze <br />let us move, let us walk <br />in this snow <br /> <br />Crow and Heron <br />they might call us; <br />those who see <br />my clothes in black <br />and yours in white <br />as light as falling snow <br /> <br />let us go <br />gently together <br />elegant and ephemeral <br />under one umbrella <br />close, warm <br />my arm on your delicate shoulders <br />and those who know <br />they will say: <br />'See, the eternal couple walk <br />Heron and Crow <br />Ying and yang <br />Never appearing never going <br />But always being' <br /> <br />Let us walk <br />smooth and precious <br />side by side, while fools think <br />there are times or moments in our lives; <br />while the wise know <br />we are always being - <br />not within time, not within segments <br />but Crow and Heron <br />beyond concept and ideation <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />______________________________________________________ <br />poem based on painting: <br />'Couple under an umbrella in the snow (crow and heron) ' <br />Color woodcut print by Suzuki Harunobu (1725? -July 17,1770)<br /><br />Raj Arumugam<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/couple-under-an-umbrella-in-the-snow-couple-under-an-umbrella-in-the-snow/
