bursts of brilliance
nature gives us bright color
before bleak Winter
*
wind shivers the trees
floating colors on the ground
decay and turn brown
*
stark and bare they stand
soon covered in their white coat
awaiting the Spring

Coral color to
Picturesque path

Under walking bridge
Tiny falls fill lily pond
With cooling water

You wear your make up.
A beautiful Geisha girl.
Smiling innocence.
*
The colors of life
As the Autumn warmth passes
Trees smiling coyly
*
You will dress in white
Pale streaks of evergreen
And sequins of ice.

Picture Geisha girls
Eyes cast downward gracefully
Crossing the red bridge.

O fortunate bridge
that sees an eternal spring
in its surroundings!

and the water at your feet
in midst of beauty

man has placed you well
so that he can share with you
your impressive home

Surreal dream colors,
Bridge made for lovers
Fall in Nippon land
***
I want to meet you there
Where the red bridge
Crosses the rainbow.
By Norma (Twi1ite@sbcglobal.net)
listen, shamisen
plays somewhere in the garden
perhaps by geisha?

the bow bridge awaits
each autumn morning
for kimonoed geisha
*
quiet autumn day
koi slip silent beneath bridge
nowhere else to go
By susi (Texaswishr@aol.com)
Misterious colors
surround the oriental bridge
nature's miracle.

the silence of the calm
echo's as gentle waters flow
peace and tranquility for all of us to know
By Mike (IBRomantic2@aol.com)
while I listened to
the musical waterfall,
autumn came
By Marilyn (LaraOct7@aol.com)
Mid afternoon walk
Lovely Japanese garden
My lover's surprise
*
I, in kimono
He said you my Geisha girl
We walked hand in hand
*
Stopped on the bow bridge
Small waterfall filling pond
Lily pads floating
*
Colorful flowers
Blooming makes the scene pretty
A lovely fall trip
By Lilly (Lilprincessitali@aol.com)
Beauty in thine eyes
Is what we've chosen to see
No ugliness here
*
Colors form our mind
It soothes the soul at first sight
Resembles good food
*
A bit of magic
Marks the hunger we all feel
Displaying colors
