Chi Retreat

Monastery in the dark dawn

welcoming the light.

The shapes emerge –

outlines of trees, plants, buildings.

Hills and houses in the distance.

My home for the weekend, Mt. Calvary.

Teachers have arrived and rested,

Ready to begin again.

Beauty in movement.

Movement in beauty.

Awakening forms, yin and yang.

Joyful balance.

Moving harmony.

Welcoming the light.
