Holy Tea Cup

Krishna rests on leaves
in banyan’s mirror image
refreshed by cool rain
filling the holy tea cup
infused with perfumed jasmine

My response to Carpe Diem Special (2nd guest) Kala Ramesh #4 jasmine rain

In this fourth CD Special, Chèvrefeuille has chosen a mixture of haiku and tanka created by Kala Ramesh:

I look at the blue sea
and the blue sky
in wonder . . .
gently they turn
into night

 liquid twilight
the tilt of a water pot
on her hip

rain catchers
near our banyan tree
here and there
leaves of the pond lotus
roll raindrop-moons

 fireflies
in their own world
jasmine rain
