Sharing

You like sharing
territories in the mountain
bears and you

Affection

Surround me with leaves
Carry me
Or simply serve me with ramen.

A pause

Secluded under the palm tree
a bed of autumn leaves
I’ll lie down and sleep.

Stillness

to thread a needle
a steady hand, a clear eye
and a grateful heart.

Home of the birds

O, so many houses
Which should I choose
What a luxury.

time

The radiance of the red bird is undeniable
The universe is still unfinished after 13.8 billion years
I have time for my season to grow corn

who, which

we waited for fish,
for bites,
got bored and left

an afternoon stint

the fiddler gathers his fiddle and hat
random kindness from strangers
a sandwich and a drink

how far are you

I do not know you are coming
I remember fragrance of your walk
I’m sorry I’m nearsighted.
