Spring

the butterfly can say nothing--spring's ending A long spring day is ending and the sunset is casting a slanted shadow like a kimono sash, on a narrow path between houses of a lonesome town. In that light, a butterfly is fluttering among the flowers in the daytime sky. It doesn't say anything and is enjoying itself like it's floating. |
