the journey continues

Iris

On the horizon
tall lined town homes walls
the rain
bow to the fresh iris leaves
fell from the roof
a prayer for good health


By the river



tall sedges clusters
scattered tombstones by temple
among the trees

darkening sky
listening to ding-dong curfew
no rain

dividing the day
boisterous song of blind minstrel
fishermen catch

morning sun
the homage to the great god
creative mind
built vermillion fencing
bows before altar


Islands

Far out into the sea
stretching caressing sand palms
islands of Matsushima
pines piles bend under the wind
curved in exquisite lines
endowed of feminine grace

  1. Quite the way to live off of ones own determination and skills at play

  2. Wonderful all, though I’m partial to islands and happily lost by the river as presented here.
