On night bus through heart of dead city at the moment we become light.

the colt and I
sense it

seed planting
taking it in turns
to re-arrange

wind chimes
no wind
still chimes

mulberry bush
dancing around
new issues

begins and ends…
before and after me

won’t be gone forever

stitching together
my snoozes

spring showers
beads of light on irises
in between

dive in —
at the last moment
a swallow

these blossoms
not a patch on Tsuyama
blowing away
