dim. dream

Snow blankets the ground.

Two women snuggle closely.

Only dreams... for now.

ohayou gozaimasu

The barn swallow cries.

Their own voice, reflected back,

voice of a true friend.

why should i care about texas

Lazuli bunting

surrounded by house sparrows.

Nonetheless, bunting.

kurukuru

Hinamatsuri

The dolls drift down the river.

Charon is confused.

letty aki

Orange, red, yellow.

Beautiful leaves herald in

December's autumn.

l'hiver

The first snowflake falls.

Winter has finally come,

eleven years late.

princess dreaming of beauty in the world

She's a strange woman:

shut-in compulsive hoarder,

lost in fantasy.

She thinks herself royalty,

delusive princess

of strange habits and queer mind.

She's only known as

the little rabbit princess;

that's all she'll tell you.

Nobody seems to like her.

I don't either, but

she's the best me she can be.

bird

chirping fills the air,

a pleasant sound from nowhere.

unlocated friend

smug self-satisfaction

The SKYLARK cries out.

The crow smiles quietly:

not capitalist.
