Poem Category: Kimono

Open silk kimono
next to her skin
the breeze that moves it.

Red silk kimono
the scent of jasmine
in her jet-black hair.

Red silk kimono
she crosses the room
with whispers.

Zen garden
wrapped in autumn
her gold silk kimono.

Standing out
in the light of the moon
her red silk kimono.

Across the snow
across the lawn
her red silk kimono.

Her red silk kimono
on our picnic
yesterday’s rain in the grass.

Red silk kimono
she feeds the koi pouts
from the bridge.

The rose-garden fog
fades
her red silk kimono.

Her red silk kimono

on our picnic

yesterday’s rain in the grass.
