tiny fawn waits                           See the haiga!
beside the silent doe
the huge sky darkens

   

these old hands
soft and supple in dusklight --
these tired eyes

   

marble monument
all their sweet names are blurred
roses frozen hard

   

young mother
kissing her baby's cheek
apple blossoms

   

night wind in the trees
and through the house front to back
all the chimes tinkling

   

resting in stars
cold blue-haloed moon
fills the night sky

   

the day she died
she walked among the blossoms -
her tears of joy

   

old empty church -
worn out kneelers resting
under layered dust

   

in the holly tree
nesting dove murmurs softly
warm breeze on my cheek
