Obsequies

It was a quiet Khmer morning. Friends and I were traveling to Siem Reap. The van we were riding in slowed down by a procession. Curiosity managed to snap a shot of what looked like a miniature house carried by a truck. As it disappeared into gathering speed I saw a coffin inside it.


The deceased apparently had something thousands of his countrymen we visited at the Killing Fields the day before never had - an obsequies.

Blue

Dove wings, rustling greens
deeds penetrate the heavens
a whiff of cool blue





Now comes the quiet
clear blue remnants of Khmer
may souls rest in peace


Question: what's the deal
between green and violet?
True color matters


Blue Monday, Haiku my Heart , Haiku Heights
