Leszek Chudzinski

For Basho

* * *

Like a wild bamboo

I sleep alongside your travels

waiting for the sound of you feet

* * *

I'm that little frog

that jumped into your poem

and made a big splash

* * *

I am your garden

where you have dwelled all these years

sprouting words each spring

* * *

I'm the raven

the white page of your poem

the face of the moon

* * *

I'm a butterfly

that one day crossed the ocean

to play in your garden

***

I’m a cherry tree

Stars fall asleep in my hair

Fireflies and wind
