Tiger, tiger

Sunlight and breezy leaves
paint the cat,
with tiger stripes

Rustling

In the silence, 

of a winter moon

we wrap up in whispers

unpack an old quilt

patchworked with a scent

of old people

Crescent

Whispers in an ancient languageĀ 

Trees clocked under mist

A half moon lingers

The cat closes his eyes again

And turns his head

Pursuit

Frozen in amber

An ant’s pursuit

It’s doom

Cloud Type

Over a sunken canoe

pass cumulus clouds

 

Hastening winds

chase their shadows

up the hills

 

So many meanings

in and out of sunlight

 

A pair of swallows

tear up

the sky

Silent night

Cold moonlight,

Solemn grasshoppers,

A dog barks

At his own echo.

It continues

Ripples

Follow river tides

When hills collapse.

Storm

Bell chimes and a butterfly

The missing subject

A wildflower

 

Village on a flowing stream

A wretched fate.

An evening

Autumn breeze

And jasmine tea

Bird by bird

An evening leaves.

Tradition

Ancestral farm

Children sort stones,

Good from evil
