Tanka...Illumination イルミネーション

イルミネーションの照らす道 あまたの人ら踏みしだき光を享けむ

 illuminations light 
up the way
many ones have trodden
on the way
and may have been lightened

※I took the photos at Koiwai Farm, Shizukuishi, Iwate, Japan.

christmas cactus starts blooming

coldest season
to absent to count
a blanket whiteness
between the snowflakes
without words
nothing to say

his petals
fired by the sunlight
outside snow

雪雲透かしおぼろ差す陽に春を恋ひ朱の花びら紅に転ず

longing for spring

to faint sunshine

through snow clouds ...

the vermilion-tint of petals

changes into pink

©2019Rika Inami 稲美 里佳


a trick of the sun?
petals changing to pink
a trick of the eye?

©Hannes Froehlich

late sun rise
sweet fragrance …
l gaze a little flower
misty view of my home town
over there
