The Song of Scattering Poems

“in the street of the sky night walks scattering poems”       E.E. Cummings

The hour late

Music floats through the 

Window

The tenant downstairs

Plays the piano

I am reminded of Paris

“In the street of the sky night 

Walks scattering poems”

The same stars shine in

Kyoto

As fingers touch the keys

Stars appear

On the sheet music

Instead of

Notes

A choir sings the song

Of scattering poems

The hour late 

Music floats through the

Window
