Celadon

In celadon spring
Nature is a green-glazed bowl
Ready for the kiln

Memory II

A reliquary,
Memory, littered with pain,
Exquisite beauty

Melancholy

In gloom and shadow,
Illusions haunt elusive
Sleep, no tomorrow

Love letter

An avowal, each
Vernal petal, unlike my
Unsent love letter

Sudden spring

Spring comes unbidden
Longed-for then suddenly blooms
In full profusion

Valentine

As to sun dogwood
Opens first blossoms, to you
I open my heart

Metamorphosis

As caterpillar
Emerges butterfly, so
Winter flowers spring

Extravagance

An extravagance,
This luminous day and you
And I together

Spirit house

In the spirit house
Of my body dwells passion
Married to rapture
