Full or in pieces the one moon floats silently in the void- as passing clouds rise and fall what else remains but stillness. the dark ink moon sits alone in the sky yet her shadow follows me when i think of moon, can't help but think of Ono no Komachi japanese court poet, i'm sure you've herad of her |

She has been a major source of inspiration for studying Tanka. ~P |
