Within plum orchard,
Sturdy oak takes no notice
Of flowering blooms.
The moon glows the same:
It is the drifting cloud forms
Make it seem to change.
Yellow rose petals
Drop one-by-one in silence:
Roar of waterfall.
An old pond
A frog jumps in–
The sound of water.
In the falling snow
A laughing boy holds out his palm
Until they are white
