About Ben Naga

The Spirit that graces me with its passing has no name and stems not from thoughts and words, though it gathers them up as it flows, but from feeling.

    It inspired the tanka. The whole thing, however poignant, remains as valid.

    I had to rescue your lovely comment from WP’s “Approve” bin and deleted/tidied up as requested/required.

    Lovely to see you up and about. ❤
