I visited the Takahata-Fudo Temple flea market, today.
I love looking around there, and saying “hi” to some vendors I haven’t seen in awhile...
I found a few items; a beautiful Etegami paint brush,
a red silk scarf, an amethyst and quartz polished meditation stone,
and a small bundle of the Temple's incense...
I love the scent of it floating in the air when I go there,
so I brought some back home.
For some odd reason at this time of the year,
many small birds swarm and congregate at dusk,
in the trees and on phone lines, near the town’s outdoor cafe’s,
and markets...
I’ve noticed it also in other surrounding towns, the same thing.
I’ll just let that mystery be, and watch not to walk directly beneath them...
