Cicadas
singing at night too
neon lights
*
Midnight dews
washing their mouths
cicadas
*
The water
falling white ―
the green pool
*
Water sound
drowning them out
cicadas
*
Welcome
the spirits of ancestors
Bon dance
*
Bon dance
reunited in joy
past midnight
*
Nebuta floating ―
Mt. Shirakami into
the darkness
*
Tachinebuta ―
mountain gods floating on
the dark street
*
Waves of prayers
lighted up ―
Lantern Festival
*
Performers
spotlighted　―
Lantern Festival
*
High up
do trumpet flowers creep
into the sky
*
High up
do a troop of ants creep
into the sweet
*
From stony earth
do irises bloom
the temple gate
*
Irises
perform zazen
the temple gate
*
Permanent snow
cools the air
summer solstice
*
The shade
bathes in the water
summer isle
*
Rainbow
in the earth ―
irises
*
Irises
think differently ―
the community
*
The soul
stops on the way ―
hydrangeas
*
Hydrangeas
bloom at the gate ―
the dreamland
*
Handkerchiefs
folded on the tree ―
birds warbling
*
The handkerchief
tied to the tree ―
birds calling
*
The skylark
flying up ―
Mt. Chokai
*
The skylark
flying into the scent ―
rape blossoms
*
Early summer ―
wild azalea reflected on
the old pond
*
Early summer ―
carp floating up
the old pond
*
The steep slope
leading down to peach blossoms ―
the utopia
*
The recluses\' dream
coming true vividly
the peach blossoms
*
Green hillside
changing its dress ―
wisteria
*
Cuckoos singing
rice seedlings rooted
in the fields
