A photograph taken inside Beijing's Forbidden City in the Summer of 2008.
One afternoon, in the
     Forbidden City,
 People roam about -- 
     Sightseeing.

The very next morning,
      A single line of tracks
          Through freshly fallen snow
      Cuts across the very
          Same yard.

city landscapers
 find year-round blooms for planters,
  but I'll await
   the wildflowers that grow 
   way up on the hillside.
