Chen-ou Liu, CA
two sparrows
the temple steps lit
by the spring sun
spring breeze
through the maple tree
mom's lullaby
a girl in
black
draws a heart in the sand
waves rolling in and out...
her
parting words
floating on a lotus leaf
spring dewdrops
the bride hides
her pricked finger:
blood stained sheets
her plane to
Japan
leaves the long white trail
a drifting leaf
first
day of class
a kite dream drifting
out the window
jump rope's
spinning ring
one by one red leaves
falling in
divided
by the wall of snow
two barking pugs
a bat
banging
against the attic window
Eric, my name now
