eyelids which flutter
to sleep to dream of blossoms -
light curtains the dawn

I am blog hopping today at Carpe Diem


the prompt is

shira ume ni akuru yo bakari to nari ni keri

the night almost past
through the white plum blossoms
a glimpse of dawn

Love this one, Gillena.

I see the light
the crows tell me
that it's dawn

Borrowing from your good one

twilight
the infant's eyelids
flutter into sleep
