CD 404 Chikurinji Temple 31


with a joyful hop
another arrival begs
a new simple chant

kaeru courageously sings
of love lost and found in sound

a new simple chant
reflecting unseen rainbows
coloring the world

Note:
kaeru = frog, return in Japanese
Also is a lucky symbol and related to travelers
kaeru is my companion guide on this journey
We are both ...female :)

      I was thinking it was the new chant of this temple...
      could be just reciting the colors of the rainbow in any language or something like:
      'honor, respect, and acceptance; promotes and encourages peace and love'

    It's the simple chants that seem to keep us going when all else fails.
