children's voices filtered
through steady rain
the past always with me

spring rain--
a child gives a dance lesson
to the cat
     Issa

  1. Hi from Paris,

    Loved Marg's.
    deeper
         deeper
               into the stream
                      shadow of a swallow

    Translated it into french :

    Toujours plus au fond
    noyée dans le courant
    l'ombre d'une hirondelle


    And shared it on our little poetry group on Facebook, "Amis de la poésie, bonjour ! ".

    Cheers.
