Again

the years

come and goes

even without me

leaves change colours

forced by the summer

I see you Autumm

in morning sunlight

web glittering and carrying

a spider’s journey

thunderstorm
Basho's frog jumps out
of the old pond

snowfall in June --
honeysuckle roses

Standing in the mist
of a chestnut tree petals
conclusion: its summer

..balloons

releasing
balloons is
rewarding
once more, we're sending
youngsters for more

Magnolia
on my neighbor's land
flourish impudent

The water drop
that hit the pond
erupt the silence

eyes closed
the roar of a waterfall
inside of me

vault of the pine-branched heavens I open

..wet

pond fishing
one leg invades
the moon

..oops

skyward...
these maples stand guard
oops, a fallen leaf!

green pond surface
duck track
visible past
 -
dammens
grønne overflade
spor efter ænder
fortidens minder

crane fly in the web
sucked dry:
wings, legs, body, one flat line

murmuring river:
a poet listened to
every day

..cautious

distant thunder...
cautiously homeward
we tread

suddenly
the sound of loneliness:
curlew on the moor

..instruments

on the beach,
they discovered string sections
on each other's toes
sumptuous sonatas became
their joined lips too...summer

the old gardener
dozing
...drooping rose heads
