Dragon

In and through the clouds

Strewn across the night black.

The twisting and turning of an ancient dragon.

No one to tell of this, but the quiet stars and waning moon.

Egrets

Wandering moth provides a gentle reminder.

Put the papers away. Stifle the light.

Need to cobble together enough rest

Be a shame to miss the egret’s morning flight.

流れる蛾こと優しい念押しを上げています。

種類を片付けて光を消える。

休み

鷺の朝の飛行

Torii Gates

In and amongst a tumbling of

Sakura petals

Through a row of ancient torii gates

Winds the body of an eternal dragon.

Big gates or small dragon? Who knows.
