Murasaki Sagano (Keiko Fujihara) - Kyoto, Japan

 

Spring


Tranquil hour
but a passing moment
camellia falls


Open window
lace curtain reaches
kaffir lilies


Kiss-me-quick
at the door the dog
in an' out


Swirling petals pink
through hi-rise valley blow
dreamy eyes don't sleep


Weeping purple
mother's kimono sleeves
wisteria


Summer


Day by day
who colors them in
hydrangea


Morning pond
sweeping monk talks to
lone iris


Gladiolus
silhouette on the school wall
recollections


Autumn


Windless noon
balloon flower sways
headless bee


Chrysanthemum
on the mossy roof
deeply rooted


No rustle
reflected autumn leaves
in the depth


Winter

Cold wind
passing through quickly
naked winter rose
