throw the pine cones
in the lake──one circle of ha
again and again

fall is sounding
louder and louder
softer and softer

winter's memory
waits for the dry leaves
to be in dream

dawn nears
stars haven't found the meaning
of the dark night

sunlight
melts in the teacup
strong and bitter

a wire pole
is still a tree with tresses
on its head

through the window
the moon brushes her kisses
on a child's face

the owl
opens one eye and
closes the other

dream──
fish swim around
one after another

the moon after rain
what an exotic woman
with a rim of breast

the pond rippling
your small cold hand
is still teasing

put stars
in the dream
a traveling backpack

after snow
stars froze
on the lake

my eight-year-old son
wants to fax me to the game
──a shortcut
