hagi no ha ni kakure kurasuru kanoko kana
in bush clover
staying well hidden...
a fawn
karakasa no shita ni shibaraku kanoko kana
lingering
under the paper umbrella...
a fawn
yû yami ya kanoko madara no yuri no hana
evening gloom--
a fawn's spots
in the lilies

evening twilight
under the birdfeeder
spotted fawn picnics
