Tis early morn in sth.aust. as I;  DREAMNINJA SHIRO face

the Creek opposite our house. The sky is clear, light

and bright blue-the Sun just topping the houses

in the foot hills eastward.

 

Everything is warm cept me.

FEELING slightly “off” SHIRO loaded up on herbs…

ready for some…

 

 

REFLECTIONS ON CREEKS,

BLUE SKY and

ONION RINGS IN MY SOCKS.

 

My morn cuppa: GREEN TEA has CAYENNE , LEMON and HONEY.

My Ears and back of Throat are coated with ONION JUICE.

 

RAW THIN SLICES OF ONION=ONION RINGS…several are tucked in my socks beneath my soles, in skin contact.

K-HERBS DONE.

Contemplating HERBS, the NINJA’s KNOWLEDGE may be

of interest. As with several other MARTIAL ARTS there are

 

“the CHINESE CONNECTIONs”

in our CLAN’s LINEAGE.

Chinese Medicinal scrolls detail a long and varied

 

approach to HERBAL MEDICINE.
