Autumn moon first glimpse
is impossibly huge;
the next, it shrank!

Temple Mural [Tanka]
a temple mural
shows monk and novice
admiring Fall leaves,
as I admire the mural -
surrounded by Spring green.

a single branch,
leafless but bloom-laden,
against the Autumn moon.

“Hoar-Frost” by Amy Lowell [w/ Audio]
In the cloud-grey mornings
I heard the herons flying;
And when I came into my garden,
My silken outer-garment
Trailed over withered leaves.
A dried leaf crumbles at a touch,
But I have seen many Autumns
With herons blowing like smoke
Across the sky.

“Autumn Moon” [秋月] by Cheng Hao [程颢] [w/ Audio]
A clear stream passes by the
mountain clad in green;
The clear sky and clear water
melt in autumn hue.
Far far away from the tumultuous
world unclean,
Long long will white clouds and
red leaves be friend to you.
