Patterns Here

Observe and see
Festive cheer warms;
Spirits set free

~~~~~~~~~


Cherry blossoms
Pink carpet pathway;
Waiting patiently

~~~~~~~~~


Here's to you
Sakura moments;
Sparkling sunshine

~~~~~~~~~


Moon overhead
View from my window;
Tender conversations

~~~~~~~~~


Mahjong games
Relatives chit-chat;
My winning streak

~~~~~~~~~


Touch of magic
Spring wind rustles;
Cheery blossoms fall

~~~~~~~~~


Moonlight stroll
Old arch bridge;
Squeaky wood groans

~~~~~~~~~


Two cats sit
Eerie moon glow;
February interlude

~~~~~~~~~


Business sold
Fortune gained;
Hollow feeling

~~~~~~~~~


Here's to good cheer
Another year;
Grey hairs draw near

~~~~~~~~~


Old footpath short cut
Patient feet chiseled;
Old habits die hard

~~~~~~~~~


Memories unfurl
Grass verge updates;
Poignant moments

~~~~~~~~~


Joy greets sorrow
Sad together;
Melancholia sings

~~~~~~~~~


Elysia calls
Going home again;
Sudden departure

~~~~~~~~~


Photo album
Old era relatives;
Sepia burnout

~~~~~~~~~


Study abroad 
Down Under Melbourne;
Kangaroo hop-scotch

~~~~~~~~~


Tinge of sadness
Stop to remember;
Fond times quicken

~~~~~~~~~


Airport terminal
Exquisite dine-in;
One for the road

~~~~~~~~~


Listless here
Holiday moods;
Mahjong punctuation

~~~~~~~~~


Toss of lucky food
Yu Sheng expose;
Fortune smiles

~~~~~~~~~


Words catch up
Meaning and motive;
Juxtapose

~~~~~~~~~


Spring season
Oriental red;
Chinatown tinctures

~~~~~~~~~
