Maria (Haibun)
 


Flowers! Always private joy. Your garden bloomed from March to October.
Today yellow crocus peeked through snow! I cut one, then another.
Quickly basket filled. You watched from windowed safety; your face a puzzled frown . Inside, basket in your hands! Eyes light up… smiles crease your face. Then frowns! Suddenly,” the wind is in pieces, blank sheets with colour” swirling.. Empty eyes held mine! You didn’t know me

Between shadowed winds
Yesterday’s memories hide
Pages of life blurred
