where the rivers meet
there seems to be a quietness –
the clear water

hot night in the trees-
I’m getting used to it

Upon the Mount of Eagles
The moon shines down-
Seeing it, a man,
Is lost in darkness,
Within his heart.

Now, at this
Though I gaze upon the setting sun,
Fond within my thoughts
In the land of Amida, alone,
Is the evening sky.

Having drifted apart,
Why should folk
Despise each other? For
Not known and unknowing
Times there were once before…

clutching
cherry blossoms
