our shadows
follow light
in opposing directions

the cat
and my soliloquy--
wrinkled afternoon

Carrying the day
their strong shoulders

winter gifts you
the promise
of a fiery spring

whims of winter...
here a leaf
there a sigh

unfulfilled wishes
guarded by brick wall

devils lurk
around ancient trunks

Silence
just before god awakes

keep looking eastward
you'll surely meet the rays

even gods need
to mend footwear

lone banyan
the witness
of passing seasons

again
the foreboding
screaming silhouettes

Another silvering year
of light and shade

Let us gamble
with whatever is left
of this winter

Weird fish gambols
in the womb
of uncertainty

When the road sings a melody
withering bricks offer
untold anecdotes
