Rain, lovely, unpredictable lyrical rain
the beauty of a simple moss-velvet stone
a winter sun latticed through cherry blossoms
a deceptive breeze rising effortlessly
floating freely in empty space
autumns’ vermilion and gold brocade
strands of silk, stretched clouds
a frosty sunrise, dew in the moonlight
sad winds that sing at the shores
trackless sands
contour softening candlelight
the roar of the crashing waves
even pebbles
polished by fast-flowing streams
all disappear in time
