|
January |
turning orange, through bonfire smoke -- the first sunrise |
|
February |
sudden gust chilly on my face -- old silk tie |
|
March |
spring snow -- light as a teenager's first make-up |
|
April |
cherry blossom -- I share with bumblebees the raining perfume |
|
May |
fragrant summer wind -- I pick the leftovers after the guests have gone |
|
June |
half way through the lecture on haiku -- forty winks |
|
July |
uphill -- mayflies overtake my footsteps |
|
August |
nimbus clouds floating -- summer field where the nunnery once stood |
|
September |
a lone goose warms his tired wings -- Indian summer |
|
October |
overnight -- little spiders with silky web covered the autumn field |
|
November |
winter gale -- chasing large leaves, a small leaf |
|
December |
away from the crowd walking in the withered field - yes, better off alone |
