To celebrate the changing of the season, I have been collaborating with Rose van Son, Gary Colombo De Piazzi and Meryl Manoy on a Spring Junicho. Here’s our offering to the new season…

spring breeze
we raise a kite
into the sound
(GN)
*
hands on my face
the sun’s rays
(RVS)
*
the flush
on her cheek
first kiss
(GCD)
*
a bee caresses
the rose blossom
(MM)
*
dawn light
I slip between
two waves
(GN)
*
a shell on the beach
unknown
(RVS)
*
butterfly
its last spiral
to the ground
(GCD)
*
leaves fall
and the forest catches fire
(MM)
*
yellow bursts
from the crocus bulb
washing day
(GN)
*
season’s end
marmalade jars fill the bench
(RVS)
*
through the glass
the sun’s orange glow
traps a moth
(GCD)
*
higher still
clouds scud a waning moon
(MM)
