Song For a New Morning


"Here's a little world you can all join in with,

it's very simple and I hope it's new ..."





Since I'm not much for, nor relish, politics (or religion, of the organized variety), it's time to move on.

Just wanted to acknowledge, gratefully, a sea change.


.柳から明て鳴きけりほととぎす

After dawn hits
the willow ...
a cuckoo sings
Issa
translated by David G. Lanoue


best,
Don
