Sunday Reflections



Time to take a breath.

First autumn morning:
the mirror I stare into
shows my father's face.

    Kijo Murakami (1865-1938)

Harvest moon:
around the pond I wander
and the night is gone.


     Matsuo Basho (1644-1694)

The first day of the year:
thoughts come - and there is loneliness;
the autumn dusk is here.

     Matsuo Basho
