resounding in the mountains

Of humankind cannot be known.
But in my birthplace
The plum blossoms smell the same
As in the years gone by.

A bird his former nest
Will always find;
Accustomed to the blossoms
On this evening they are gone…

There are pauses between the showers of the outer world,
But there is no time when my sleeves, wet with tears, are dry.

things wondered about — springtime,
where has it gone to?
