Tanka Cafe:the theme of "visiting"

as her death anniversary nears,
I sit beside my memories--
through the evening
the lovely voice
of a tsukutsuku cicada

Selecded Tanka

finding solace
in the impossible
here I am
in a bubble bath
perfumed with green forest

Autumn,
a sobbing violin--
when night falls
oh, Mother,please
let me weep
