Gangri Tokar
the sacred mount
gently

lifts me

into the sky’s
descending
embrace

her falling waters
moistening

nourishing

all that once was
hard

dissolving all
that never
was

may these blessings
emanate

from every breath

that henceforth
passes
through

these lips

dharma rain
glistening

in my eyes
