13.11: Journal of Thoughts

reflections of a bridge, winter trees in a calm river.

River Reflections

trees bow toward their sleeping echoes;
the bridge repeats itself in hush;
the water holds two heavens at once.
        — three-line jueju in English

winter river stills—
trees and bridge breathe twice in glass,
sky drifts underneath.
        — haiku

    I do like “sky drifts underneath.”

    Is that your photography?

        Didn’t look like your style, but I could see something you-like in it.
