Late September is
wearing a sky-colored
lined kimono
--Kobayashi Issa
Red, after yellow,
after green; the chlorophyll
sleeps in cold weather
Etchings in the frost;
Some mysterious scribbling
of stories on glass
Wandering through fields
shoulder high and still stretching;
the rain feeds the grain
Some travel afar,
making plans for gathering
beneath Hunter's Moon
At ocean's high tide,
we wander close to the line
where sand disappears
Laughter is what comes
after the strange connection
between tone and words
A space for Bonfire maintainers and contributors to communicate
