beyond the fence
the grass a deeper green ...
butterfly's shadow

twilight moon
the silence
of street lights

the folding
of a butterfly's wings
summer's end

thunder...
all that's left
the sound of rain

thunder rain
echoes of silence
you left behind

answering my prayers the sound  of wind

jukebox
singing myself to
old time memories

burning candle
getting lost in the darkness
of your eyes

swaying bamboo
still the silence
of the moon

falling sakura
the things now I'm willing
to let go of

insomnia
she opens the window
to let the moonlight in

open window
spring drifts along
with the sound of rain

winter walk --
so many thoughts
between raindrops

and
suddenly
this rain
the things I wish
I'd said

between me and him
the shadow of the wind --
whirling leaves

desolate path --

walking deeper into
the north wind

almost home ...
at the end of the lane
full moon

unpaired glove --

just another day
without you

first winter
the perfect pair 
of baby mittens

in a world

without borders 
dandelions

taking the shape of the sky skeleton trees

morning quiet --
stirring the sunlight
into my coffee

flying eagle the echoes of mountains

windblown leaves
turning the pages of 
old photo albums

cold night the absence of Basho's moon

feeling
the roughness of pine cones
end of summer

drifting clouds
songs of birds changing
with the wind

travel notes
Kyoto's autumn leaves
fall from the pages

winter stars
the thoughts of you
longer than the night

scented breeze the silence of falling blossoms

breeze ripples the pond my name on your lips

unfinished diary
our story ends
too soon 

old calendar
I make a paper boat
and let it drift away

lingering dewdrops
first tea of the year
with old friends

along the road
into the mist
another journey begins

broken mirror
picking up the pieces
of me

first sunrise
the warmth of your hand
in mine
