silent sunday
minimalism
winds are sighing
None calls upon me, or remembers me in my mountain village.
On the reeds by the thin hedge, the Autumn winds are sighing.
~The Sarashina Diary, A.D. 1009-1059 (Diaries of Old Japan)
i am like dew…
I am like dew on the grass–
And pitiable wherever I may be–
But especially am I oppressed with sadness
In a field with a thin growth of reeds.
~The Sarashina Diary, 1009-1059 (Diaries of Court Ladies of Old Japan

blessings of gratitude
Life offers us brief glimpses into the compassionate nature of silent strangers…those who pick up lost mittens, shoes, teddy bears, etc. and place them on benches, fences, swing sets. May you be touched with the blessings of gratitude.

The twilight bell
I waited for
is sounding–
if tomorrow is granted me,
I’ll listen for it again.

All taken by the snow
Till nothing yet remains.
