RENKU
Shisan
: A row of flip-flops
|
| |
|
|
|
barbecue guests
on the welcome mat
a row of flip-flops |
|
|
|
treading
pebbles
down to the waves
|
|
|
|
all those men
who worked to build
the college tower |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
along the
cloisters
a build up of leaves
|
|
|
|
at full
moon,
the nun so aware,
her belly's flatness
|
|
|
|
besotted,
to please him,
a few kinky outfits
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
muffled
up,
all week braving snow
to visit her grave
|
|
|
|
the cemetery
'Friends'
make a haven for wildlife
|
|
|
|
despite
the smell
he feels a strong affinity
with bats
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
she sheds
a few tears
at the bedroom's bare walls
|
|
|
|
from my
window
Apple Blossom fairies
perched on a branch
|
|
|
|
fresh green
paint
on swings in the 'rec'
