Kyoto 京都市




Kyoto 

surrounded by mountains

when the full moon floats

it seems that I run into the Bamboo Prince

chattering wood-flip-flops

the wearing of Kimonos


He lives in an eel house to avoid summer heat

that has summer breezes running through

He is looking at the inside-garden 

hearing a bamboo-pipe receive flowing water 

making sounds against a hand-washed-stone-pot


colorful maple leaves fall onto him as he is

caught in a Fox's wedding on a sunny cold winter day

eating herring-soba to keep up his protein
























He enjoys Spring covered in the pink

Of cherry blossom


Traditional life ideas bearing something new, here in Kyoto

in cuisine, attire and life-style

for eyes, ears, nose and mouth 


- wabi sabi
