three blue bees—
in the cactus garden
sunset

     

grizzled owl in the bush—
dusty full moon
sows stillness

     

flower of blue lightning—
in the sandy harbor
flattering mist

     

two slow clouds—
on the sundial
the last bee

     

teeth of the snowstorm—
fireplace song follows
a long night

     

dry trace of tear
like accidental butterfly
sunset fluttering

     

smell of resin,
thunder—forest shadows
hide the wind’s roar

     

the gray forest
sinks in a still water—
dusk is fluttering

     

like snowflakes
stars and shadows falling—
the travelers’ temple

     

moonlight’s web,
light roaming wind,
linden fragrance

     

cloud’s rags,
the flock of new stars,
moonlight’s ash

     

before sunset,
the distant sun’s rust
extinguished by mist

     

light wings of dream,
dust of blue moonlight,
fragrance of grass

     

quick sand of fate,
in the inflow of light
mist in flower
