Nepal Cascades

In Nepal rhododendron

bushes 90 ft. high

are cascading flower fountains

spilling down the holy

mountains

.. these hanging garden

garlands

obscure the entrance

to caves..

while other caves in these

hills

are silkscreened

in skeins of

spread fan cataracts



In these hills

the sacred silence

permeates even

newly arrived strangers
