December 7th
the year market –
so full of lights, fun, food, wine;
gossip in the cold air
December 6th
eating fresh fish
I wonder how blowfish tastes
and how big it gets in winter
December 5th
to hide and nap
untroubled while I keep warm –
I am a cat in winter
December 4th
winter paddy – one view
that is whiter than the rice
we eat in spring
December 3rd
oh how sorry I feel
that I got lured by the sunny day
in a sudden winter rain
November 26th
sitting indoors,
sipping on hot tea,
I dream the winter mountains
November 25th
the only tea flowers
I will see this season
are boiling in my tea pot
November 24th
I don’t blame you, bedbugs –
you seek shelter but please pour your anger
on my gentle skin
November 23rd
craving porridge every morning
not of hunger but of cold –
so I put the milk to boil
November 22nd
why roses!
so fresh and fragrant and in bloom –
so out of season
November 21st
around the fireplace –
drinking, friendship and laughter
that break the cold spell
November 20th
in days so short,
man should only sleep and have fun
like animals do
