Garden walk tanka sequence

1/
silent stroll
thru the morning mist
in garden of memories
nothing changed much
but the clouds and the chill

2/
long time no see
by the paved footpath
overgrown grasses
dews, leaves and the hibiscus
remind me who i was not

3/
picking lemongrass
for cooking this morning
the first time
i learn not to confuse
me and my alter ego

Vincent's haiku

1/
lonely night stroll
a distant chant in the breeze
Starry starry night

jalam malam sendiri
angin lembut membisikkan
Starry starry night

2/
undying star
in the garden of irises
a man named Vincent

bintang abadi
di taman iris
lelaki itu Vincent

*Homage to Don McLean and Vincent van Gogh
