ROBIN LOFTUS

For a Japanese Sculptor - Akira

tensile strength of muscle

Zen-lifting heavy stone blocks

lets sculptures soar

 

giving me a rose

your small stone-roughened hands

touch me

 

night wind in bamboos

the garden sings roses

and dawn birds’ flight

 

green bamboos sway

promise strong frames

for the tea-house dream

 

blocks of stone your walls

stars your roof-tree

clear water your floor
