Kyoto Poem by wabi sabi
Kyoto
surrounded by mountains
when the full moon floats
it seems that I run into Bamboo Prince
chattering wood-flip-flops
wearing Kimono
He lives in an eel house to avoid summer heat
that has summer breezes running through
He is looking at the inside-garden
hearing bamboo-hose receiving flowing water
making sounds against a hand-wash-stone-pot
colorful maple leaves fall onto him
gets caught in A-Bridal-Day of Fox on a sunny cold winter day
eats herring-soba to keep up with protein
enjoys spring covered in pink
cherry blossoms will be on
Traditional life ideas bearing something new, here in Kyoto
in cuisine, attire and life-style
for eyes, ears, nose and mouth
nice vision of kyoto is stated in a poetic way. ever always loved to wear that kimono. cheers~nb
I am just admiring live on the tv screen the beautiful leaves red autumn tints of mapple trees in Kyoto while outside my house, everthing is white. One day I will visit this delightful place also. Hopefully in spring time. Thank you for this wonderful poem!
