Art is a journey into the most unknown thing of all - oneself. Nobody knows his own frontiers… I don’t think I’d ever want to take a road if I knew where it led.

Louis Kahan
    Spring air —
Woven moon
And plum scent.
    Spring too, very soon!
They are setting the scene for it —
plum tree and moon.
    The temple bell stops.
But the sound keeps coming
out of the flowers.

the moon:

I wandered around the pond

all night long

( Basho )

Breakfast enjoyed

in the fine company of

morning glories

( Basho )

The wind from Mt. Fuji

I put it on the fan.

Here,the souvenir from Edo.

( Basho )

Won”t you come and see

loneliness? Just one leaf

from the kiri tree.
