torn cobweb
he tells me
he’ll never marry

fading darkness
a blackbird rehearses
his song

cool breeze
falling petals strew
the swan’s nest

family celebration
the Sunday trip ends in
a traffic jam

passing shadow
silenced for a moment
the chirping hedge

half-veiled moon
the white magnolia petals
unfold

melting ice
the letter I hesitate
to answer

spring rain
the clatter of change
in the beggar’s hat

awaiting the news
moon sliver peeks
through my window

sudden shower
umbrellas
bursting into blossom
