A KOAN UNTOUCHED BY RAIN

Under the umbrella
stopping the hard rain
drenched in
sil-suwanda white,
I saw.
Had I sinned, I wondered,
had I not?
Was the distance to exit lengthened
did I get closer,
was composure wrecked
or resurrected?
I do not know.
The mind came to a halt
before her.

  3. This is one of your best. The Sinhala interpretation is even better as I remember, and one of my favourites.
