I'd like to divide
myself in order to see,
among these mountains,
each and every flower
of every cherry tree.

Emotional states are fairly quick bursts of neuronal gossip. Traits, on the other hand, are more like the neuronal equivalent of committed relationships.

Children I implore you
get out of the burning house now
three carts wait outside
to save you from a homeless life
relax in the village square
before the sky everything's empty
no direction is better or worse
east is just as good as west
those who know the meaning of this
are free to go where they want

Limitations gone:
Since my mind fixed on the moon,
Clarity and serenity
Make something for which
There's no end in sight.

Now seen...now gone,
The butterfly flits in and out
Through fence-hung flowers;
But a life lived so close to them
I envy...though it's here and gone.

Returning to where
It used to see blossoms,
My mind, changed,
Will stay on at Yoshino...
Home now, and see anew.

Last year, Yoshino,
I walked away bending branches
To point me to blossoms--
Which now are everywhere and I can
Go where I've never been before.
