Grass

Close up photo of a blade of ornamental grass with the sun setting behind it.

Ornamental grass
glisten in the setting sun;
fountains on sidewalks.

Hope

Photo of the sunset on the runway, as seen through the glass window of an airport. There’s an aircraft on the runway and a ground vehicle. The airport’s seating area is reflected on the glass.

I watch the sunset;
airport waiting area
promises sunrise.

Wait

Photo of a red flower laying on a cliff on an ocean.

Alone and forlorn
lays on a bare ocean cliff—
red flower, for love.

Hello world

Photo of a walking trail, surrounded by tall and lush trees, in a national park.

I greet the neighbours,
gently walking through the woods—
the wild hellos back.

Good luck

photo of an acacia tree and a weak sun on a cloudy day

Sweet acacia tries:
hopes to catch the hazy sun—
howling, winter laughs.
