Short Poems
 
Late autumn –
this old tree
makes a sparse encounter

     Crows and Full Moon - Ito Sozan   
Lamp posts –
Random encounters
in the morning fog
Sprouted a kite
this tree, 
since the last time!
birds’ wings
in the evening
twilight
An ocean –
somewhere
in the morning mist 
 

              
The ocean at twilight – 
old men bent
over buckets and lures
 
Spring night –
Moonlight
on the bedroom rug
 
The singular song
of a cricket
paused in mid-stride;
evening breeze
through the window
