silence
and the deeper silence
when the cricket stops
--Leonard Cohen
We cup our fingers
to hold the moon tight, its light
shimmers inside us
On a cold, cold night,
we huddle near the fire;
stories as kindling
Such tiny packets
dipped in hot water, steeped
and set for comfort
snow bends the spruce boughs

An abandoned lawn
dons its winter coat of leaves
and small broken sticks

In the eyes of the hawk
over the withered fields
sits the winter storm
—Naitō Jōsō
At the water's edge -
withered reeds, water lilies -
not a frog in sight
the pine boughs
sigh –
November wind
the pine boughs
sigh –
November wind
Sipping some liquids
by the fire with some friends;
imbibe, chat and smile

even the clams
keep their mouths shut
in this heat
—Matsuo Bashō
The scritch and the scratch
of withered grass in the wind,
a soft marimba
Rake the red hot coals
of the fire; it's burning
below the surface
