hummingbird
lets a flower hear it
before giving a kiss
rainbow in a dewdrop -
no one hears
my inner joy

a bird’s song is heard
in between pains
flowering cherry -
I forbid myself to think
about the time

a wandering path
echoes the mountain river
chasing its clear flow
the day’s catch…
trapped in fishing nets
fleeting sunset
still waters beneath
the true colour of eyes
facing the sky
amongst falling leaves
the space I occupy in
life

among white swans
