TARA

 TARA

And one day the mountain erupted,
A magnificence,
but sad.
The mountain broke all the vows of forbearance, compassion,
because the mountain could not help.
For days on end the sorrow flowed
in rivers of fire liquefied .

On the day when the mountain cooled
two tears fell.
Massive drops of green and blue,
the mountain's delight.
And thus was Tara born,
the green eye told her what to do, how to heal and let a thousand seeds come to life
and make the earth green
and the blue eye told her how to love; simply watch and love.
