Love Haiku 7:9
7
my forgotten love
at dawn the light of your smile
your voice calls my name
8
once upon a time
our laughter rustled the leaves
autumn glow splendor
9
another springtime
blossoms in the lost meadow
where first i found you

Towards April Twilight
orchestra of colors:
magenta and tangerine
lemon and ruby
set the sky in flames
barefoot I walk
on moist grass
thickened
by afternoon rains
coagulated winter numbness
dissipates
with the air’s whisper
of impending warmth
memories swept by autumn winds
reborn in tender green branches
resplendent
in the fading glow of the setting sun
the heart’s joy and yearning
awaken once again
towards April twilight.

Love Haiku 1:3
1
time of plum blossoms
you hold my hand as we stroll
fragrance fills the air
2
love letter arrives
so many moons I waited
bamboo leaves quiver
3
you cast a pebble
a ripple born in waters
drowns in blue ocean

Come Back to the Garden
Come back to the garden
you have forgotten
after moments have passed
innumerable
as the evening stars —
behold:
the tear-drenched ebony loam
blossomed into clouds
of fragrant peonies,
fallen lilac petals
awakened
topaz and amethyst lilies —
Come back to the garden
you have forgotten
there you will find me
gathering the flowers.

7
mutton stew with wine
red flames dance the flamenco
tango you and i
8
rain beads on branches
pearls of tears sparkle at night
break of dawn brings joy
9
songbirds warble still
defy the winter starkness
crocus bulbs awake
10
frost on blue mountain
Li Po drinks his wine again
where to go from here
