ecstatic flowers
the green leaves swaying in trance
immersed in the rain
~
immersed in the rain
muddy puddles on the street
brighter everything
~
brighter everything
monsoon winds bring smile to lips
ecstatic boy runs
* For Carpe Diem # 252 Ecstasy.
puddles
Taue (Rice Planting) Haiku
reflecting shadows
puddles of water on fields
workers in sedge hats
~
fields filled with water
men descends to place seedlings
gilded performers
~
women in kasa
traditional performance
the paddies planted
~
bow down in prayer
planting the mother earth’s womb
promising fine crops
~
young girls singing songs
hoping for a good harvest
time for festival
~
aura of dances
enhanced crop’s vitality
melodies in air
