*

A cat's nail
scratching the water -
sound of shamisen

*

Flock of storks -
a long ligature toward
the hot lands

*

Crickets in the bushes.
But the child cries to me:
- Listen to the bells

*

A raven in the fog -
the invisible cords
of a silent contrabass.

*

The grasshoppers
drum on the tent -
a fear from the storm

*

The wind whistles
the Shubert's serenade
into your shirt.

*

With fingers I ruffle
the grass after me -
green pauses
