☿

[alexanderscttb]

a

Dead stink bug clinging
to the curtain, jasmine buds
heaped with dust like snow.

b

A torrent of hail
granules leap like cubic frogs,
stream down the sloped bricks.

c

Every drop, a flash
as if there never was snow
Shines on the gutter.

d

Cardinals facing east
And west, the sparrow
knew another way!
