the bloomed tulips
praying

through the downy snow…
white symphony

old coffee grinder –
the movie of my life
done manually crank

by some unpaid bills

bones pain –
the cold embroiders flowers
on my window
a leaf on my palm –
by the shortness of the midrib
we are twins

abyssal blue –
from nowhere the first
snowflake

in the window the geraniums
relight the sunset

after rain –
on the rice field
hazy moon

the shadow of dragonflies
over white water lilies

measuring in silence
the shadow of the time

zen meditation –
a bee around the flowers
buzzing so loud
in one blink –
butterfly no longer
on my nose

June storm –
an old woman takes her goat
in the house
end of May –
in the neighbor’s cherry tree
a flock of crows

the song of crickets
between gasps of memory
Hiroshima Day
the end of chemo
a window opens towards
the autumn twilight
