haiku

 

I

3 of cups

 

threeÕs company

for four is asleep una-

ware of the fun

 

oneÕs cup overflows

with friendship and eat

drink and be merry

 

a unified force

of the earth mother

ebbs and flows.

 

 

II

page of wands

 

a young man takes a

well-deserved rest before he

sets off again

 

a message is on

its way to meet with you soon

donÕt run away

 

willow wand shafting

secret silence and

bearing the lordÕs seed

 

 

III

knight of cups

 

young and still fair i

raise my grail and heartÑop-

en to the cosmos

 

drink of the wine of

the flesh and the beauty of

the female form

 

entrusting herself

to me fully i complain

about the heat
