Forepaws

after a walk
right to left
warm forepaws by a stove
give your hind legs
to me

a Kingfisher

Kingfisher 1
difficult to leave
sunny riverbank
in the winter morning
去りがたし 寒波の後の 日の恵み
***
at the sunny riverside
walk past
a mumbling man
happen to follow his gaze
a kingfisher

a Cup of Coffee

Jan 4th
New Year's holidays are over
awaken my drowsy body
with a steaming cup of coffee

New Year's scene

Paper lanterns
Paper lanterns
warm up New Year’s visitors
to a shrine
あたたかや提灯あかり初詣

Sunset of Jan 2, 2011
at day's end
a winter seagull
flies across the twilight
冬かもめ薄暮の中を飛び去りぬ

Unibrow



somewhere over the rainbow,
seagulls fly,
there's a Land of Unibrow,
why then, oh why can't I?

Happy 2011




at the first sunrise
drink a toast
scarlet on your cheek

交わす杯 君の頬さす 初茜
