my morning, shelf and strainer for tea, non glazed and

rought therefore it keeps flavor and smell of tea i drank

yesterday. 

thunderstorms make two skies, dark and light

so i go from the second part to one more 

`nature letter`, alma`s  - her amaryllis seeds

made me draw the flower on the porcelain

for pendant or pin, she will tell me. i know

how she loves this flower

lupins, in light peach and purple are the ones i never saw

living around them as a child they became part of my side

that will always stay first. with sun, our flat on the fifth floor

no elevator, rusty tub filled with rain water raspberry bushes

we go for a walk every other day eat ice cream wrapped in paper

and getting ready for something new

first time i saw ginkgo and tulip tree,

it was in finland, small garden filled

with sun yet frozen morning, two 

girls were sitting near the pond,

speaking japanese and it was so 

quiet so i could catch some words.

and this is poster with leaves and there 

is the one that is still unknown for me -

sassafras, mitten leaf they say. elm tree,
with uneven sides and willow, always 
gets me thinking about floating water -
moon road.

i think these five ones

are like me, 

what shapes and colors 

of nature are like you?
