A bit of me

I am only at my start
me you shouldn't yet judge

The Future

It's a state of mind-

the future

the person speculates:

what is there to secure?

Eyes

Eyes that can't see

one should be

donated to the blind freely

who will see life's timeless beauty

Through My Eyes

It seems to me the feminine Japanese mystique is more intriguing than its Western counterpart's ---it lies in its grace, naturalness, humility and demureness, depth in self-restraint and sobriety.

Haiku inspired by a Japanese Painting

Early spring-garden
at first blush of clear morning
petals dance in breeze

The River and I

Where the river is
there am I
such liberation
under the benign sky--

forget the wherefore
and the why
that which is born
is destined to die-

well have I lived
with both joy and sigh
the flow that's life
I accept and can't deny

OBITUARY

He lived

he had his say

his time came

silently he left away-

despite his sorrow and pain

he never knew what it was to pray

the darkest hour he didn't fear

he pleaded not for a longer stay.
