The white snow
Falls from a dark sky

The slender river
Winds its blue way
Under Meguro Bridge

Who is she
In a brown kimono
A paper umbrella
Over her head

That old woman
Once so beautiful

For whom
A young man
Very much in love
Wrote his poems

A beautiful poem, very visual. I felt like I could see her. The Meguro Bridge is one of many in Japan and your poem makes me want to visit it.
