::kiss the earth enough::








::one regret that i am determined not to have, dear world, when i am lying on my deathbed, is that i did not kiss you enough.:: hafiz of persia via ladinsky

peonies scatter
two or three petals
lie on one another

butterfly
sleeping
on temple bell

the lights are going out
in the doll shops--
spring rain

evening primrose--
there ought to be
a yellow kind


in the summer rain
the path
has disappeared
::buson translation per robert hass::


::there is no one in this world
that is not upon
His jeweled dance floor::
::hafiz translation per daniel ladinsky::
