Shared with What Do You See #326 picture prompt
A reliquary, stone and timber,
void, earth, water, wind, and fire,
A shinbashira pendulum
that sways to quell the quake’s desire.
A cosmic axis, a connection
from human to the divine,
A transcendental protection
in sacred mandala’s design.
Hear the peaceful water’s fall,
the way cannot be denied,
Shadows span the temple tall
in the mountain countryside.
