Micro-Seasoning

 Kim is hosting Poetics in the dVerse Poets Pub ~ today we are 'creating' mico-seasons ~ Japan's year is divided into seventy-two micro seasons ~ each lasting only several days ~ each with a poetic name

Song Water


Arrival ~~

clouds gather softly

as air hums with quiet hope

frogs still their breathing


Awakening ~~

morning dawns anew

song water drifts into breeze

glorious rainfall


Renewal ~~

leaf tips overflow

pond-mirrors ripple with stars

croaks weave through thick mist


Waning ~~

silence after rain

lonesome  frog is calling out

steam drifts from soaked stones
