A pheasant appeared

A pheasant appeared
from a flowering Jerusalem artichoke bush
suddenly,
as if it was trying
to convey something.

A thrush flies

A thrush flies
from the green grass
to a tree branch
and cools off
in the shade.

At Shinobazu Pond

I walked alone,
passing through the atmosphere
of the festival,
gazing out at the lotus flowers
blooming at Shinobazu Pond.

Agapanthuses rooted

Catching rainy memories,
Agapanthuses rooted
here
the future resides
quietly

Cornus kousa

Cornus kousa,
they display their white shurikens
in shade trees,
as if offering prayers
towards the sky

Cornus kousa,
they spread out
their fresh green branches and leaves
they lined up their white shurikens
like waves

Rosemary

Drawn
to refreshing scents
of rosemary,
I traveled back
in history.

Spring evening

Spring evening,
time approaches dusk,
cherry blossoms in full bloom rustle,
creating a gorgeous banquet
by flowers.
