Moonlight on Ox-Eye Daisies

Send us Fan Mail It’s the night of a blue moon. Following a hot and busy sunny day the canal settles down into a contented stillness. It’s a perfect night to join and to sit back, let the quietness wash over us, to relax and to let our minds play with some big ideas. Journal entry: 23rd May, Sunday “Voices lift across the water No words, just sound A copy of Baisao in my hand Lingering over phrases and lines In the soft evening sun. I too have my cup of tea beside me Pine wind among the reeds Carp twist in crystal light Swallows dip low to drink.” Episode Information: In this episode I reflect on Jeff Van Booven’s reflections following the previous episode on time.
