A sequence of rengay based on a starting verse by Sogi

 

4 Wildflowers Swaying Its house abandoned, the garden has become home to butterflies.      /Sogi* wildflowers swaying across the old railroad tracks bite marks still show on the rusty stakes— missing horseshoes broken swing at the forgotten playground a seagull's cry from other shores bits of flotsam, no shells    train whistle the old hermit finds a new home       August 1, 2007 * Translation of Steven D. Carter    Sogi: 1421 - 1502
