#781 On The Drowning at Sunset

Behind those green hills
The sun is drowned by clouds;
Sunset calls her home.

#711 On Vermillion Ribbons

Ribbons in the sky
Vermillion streaks against grey
An astral promise.

#689 On White Clouds

White clouds like blankets
You can barely see the hills
Wrapped up like mummies.

#688 On These Steel Blue Clouds

Under steel blue clouds
A single ray of light shines:
The lake is cool, cold.

#687 On The Dragon’s Tail

The white clouds enshroud
The verdant hillside - aswirl
Like a dragon’s tail.

#651 On This Turneresque Shroud

Like a Turneresque canvas
Rain shrouds my windows
The growl of thunder deafens.

#621 On Mister Tree’s Muffin Top

Sorry, Mister Tree:
Your muffin top is showing
On the metal bar.

#620 On Gnarled Bark Like Bricks

The gnarled bark like bricks
Stacked high up to the treetops
Grasping the blue sky

In Meguro’s autumn we
Bask in your timeless wisdom.

#589 On the Sauronic Glare

Sentinel of fire
Upon its shadowless throne:
Angry eye, glowering.

#515 Tentang Tarian Embun

Tari embun di hujung daun
Sambut girang terbit mentari
Hamba sujud merafak ampun
Tuhan alam semesta jadi.
