31 days theme - october 2009
1. Today and today also
2. Thus spring begins
3. There are no strangers under cherry blossoms
4. So many breezes, but never enough
5. The cat learns a festival dance
6. They whisper, "Goodbye, goodbye," in a falling mist
7. Morning glories make a roof
8. I don't know one joke
9. Wandering birds pass through the village
10. Only violets remain
11. I feel about average
12. Now this day too enters history
13. This world of dew/ is only a world of dew-/ and yet... oh and yet...
14. I've waited for you for a long time
15. Tempting me into the garden
16. Bring me lasting light
17. Solemn talk of distant rain
18. I wrote on a wall, "I've gone ahead."
19. Hide-and-seek among the tea flowers
20. And within every dewdrop a world of struggle
21. In the midst of this world/ we stroll along the roof of hell/ gawking at flowers
22. Vanish quickly, for you are finally free
23. As if tired from their pilgrimage
24. Ask tearfully, truly
25. Fields of new grasses
26. Shining in my soup bowl
27. I've squandered all these years
28. You have outgrown your first kimono
29. A crow buries its secret
30. I weep for my mother as I watch the sea
31. O little sparrows, mind your place!
