awake too early
shuffling through the kitchen
I startle a half moon
peeking through the skylight
awake too early
shuffling through the kitchen
I startle a half moon
peeking through the skylight
Christmas wind
blows the scent of frangipani
through the front door

frangipani moon
Christmas guests
cold air surrounds them
like an extra coat
dragonfly
stitches a pattern
above the pond
winter morning
the bird song hurries
in the chill air
