what Spring won't reveal:
monkeys don't care.

Lying in Wildflowers [Haiku]

Photograph taken near the Tabor Monastery of the Transfiguration in Tbilisi, Georgia.

amid wildflowers:
city disappears.

Long Live Bonsai [Senryū]

Photograph of a bonsai tree taken on the grounds of a Hanoi Temple.
the bonsai tree
isn't a BANZAI! tree,
yet looks 10,000.

NOTE: “Bonsai” [盆栽] means “potted plant.” “Banzai” [万歳] means “10,000 years,” (in the manner of “long live the king.”)
