4 Tanka: 'Finally comes rain...'

Finally comes rain

rinsing old dust from dry leaves

now look like new born.

Do we need first to get wet

to drop worn out behavior?



After days of rain

autumn wind shows one's cold face

leaves are falling down.

Must all gathered has to drop?

Then doors open for real change.



Freezing air fills space -

empty silence around trees

where are all the birds?

Do I depend when I'm sad?

Outside fulfilment can't last.



Watching those dark clouds

knowing sunshine will show soon -

all's just transition.

But it's not helping to cheer up

good mood needs specific food.
