weekend sky … 9.25.21

The dark sky dulls my dreamy mind, 
The down-dripping rain lingers– 
O my tears down falling, longing after thee!
~The diary of Murasaki Shikibu

“…’when I looked out, opening the sliding door on the corridor, I saw the morning moon very faint and beautiful,’ …”

weekend sky

Beyond the clouds
My gaze goes on and on;
The endless sea:
What lies beyond is unknown
As my gloomy thoughts…

weekend sky #39

Even in our wandering journey, 
The lonely moon accompanies us lighting us from the sky 
The waning moon I used to gaze at in the Royal City.

high in the sky

but owe it all

weekend sky #37

sun setting’s farewell

to summer’s billowing clouds –

silent turbulence
