echoes of Nakagawa

Posted on Categories Poetry

one note of the shakuhachi

resounds endlessly

piercing the winter clouds

the flute’s haunting tones

scatter winter clouds

echoes beyond time

disappearing

snow on mountain peak

unfurls a Rainbow

mountain snowmelt

in halos of mist

shimmering rainbows

My name is Janice.  I started blogging as Ontheland when I moved from Toronto to a rural area near Kingston, Ontario in Canada.  Over time I have found myself writing poetry, mostly in Japanese forms, such as haiku and haibun.  One of my deepest interests is the natural world: the joy of it and how we can look after it better.
