being alone
may also be pleasant
autumn dusk

Beneath a tree,
autumn wind shows itself
in a single leaf ~Junkaku*

Journey piled on journey
At a distance of a thousand years
Will you see?
From the pines of Sue,
To the living pine groves
~Izumi Skikibu

The fall of leaves
has left some autumn
on the upper branches

No trail to follow
where the teacher has wandered off —
the end of autumn

Going through the gate,
I am also a wanderer
this twilight in autumn.

What you want to acquire, you should dare to acquire by any means. What you want to see, even though it is with difficulty, you should see. You should not let it pass, thinking there will be another chance to see it or to acquire it. It is quite unusual to have a second chance to materialize your desire.

None goes along this way but I,
This autumn eve.
