to: Forestpireo- not losing to the rain, not losing to the wind

tomorrow, when it will be sunny,
with the clouds as fluffy as unshorn sheep.
I'll take out the checkered blanket and basket,
walk up to the hill with the poppies,
and I'll have a picnic with the air.

the day after tomorrow, which was dark,
with the clouds like islands in the sky.
I stayed indoors all day, washing the dishes,
staring outside at the wind through the trees,
and sang a song no one could hear.

yesterday, when it was raining,
with the clouds as flat as marble.
I tread out of town with a lady-bug umbrella,
splashing quietly through the barren streets,
window-shopping for the teacups you wanted.

the day before yesterday, which will be snowy,
with the clouds reflecting the ground.
I will climb a tree without leaving footprints,
replay the music box from you, who's never met me
and watch the world disappear.

Garden

to: miku-tan- thoughtful zombie (japanese ver)

the skeleton spoke
silence in words.
the rain spoke
words in silence.

the pumpkin told
a rock a story.
the morning glory told
a worm the sun.

the fish shed tears
for the bridge.
the apple shed tears
for the stars.

the book cried
the touch of rain.
the pen cried
the touch of words.

the girl walked through
a garden in September.
the skeleton asked her
of death.

Sandcastle

Sandcastle

to: akino arai- kakusei toshi

A girl built a sandcastle,
on a blistering, blue summers day
in the month of February
when the ocean turned it's back.

A girl wonders to herself
if glass is better left as sand
and she fixtures a white flag
from a twig and a napkin.

A girl stood in an empty ocean bed
and felt herself drowning
so she dug a wind-filled moat
for the water to find.

A girl watches for the moon
from her windows made of sand.
And she continues to question
what it is that it reflects.

The girl receives a message of snow,
riding on the waves of the dunes.
And she leaves the sand as sand
for a land she's never seen.
