|
January |
end of winter the maple trees still wear some golden leaves |
|
February |
cloudy morning mounds of mushrooms appear in the rain-soaked lawn |
|
March |
in dark pantry the onions start to sprout spring advent |
|
April |
april morning the birds' noise heralds ripening loquats |
|
May |
passing through painted lady butterflies from south of border |
|
June |
rite of summer jacaranda blooms bluer than the sky |
|
July |
bougainvilleas bloom under the summer sun children’s laughter |
|
August |
two-faced apple one side good the other rotten great pretender |
|
September |
end of summer the echoes of laughter in her daughter’s room |
|
October |
a ground orchid greets the autumn morning favorite teacher |
|
November |
autumn advent the gardenia’s fragrance scatters in the wind |
|
December |
frosty December my backyard lemon tree still bears golden yields |
