Senryu / micro poems

Birdsong, borders, and new love trace grief's geometry on campus.

June 15, 2022

bird song ~
a dash of hope in
my empty heart

first rain,
trembling green…
new love blossoms

beyond the borders, my homeland

winter rain…
the geometry of grief
on your sleeping face

school after long—
a bunch of flowers
for her teacher
