Beginnings - spring nijuin renga

(19 more verses to come)

bears emerge from
winter sleep, rousing from lairs
dug out from under trees

let's plan Zen poetry
oh when the Grass Sprout Moon turns blue

some see the face of
man, others report seeing
rabbit shadow

that's how the old ones tell it-
don't think I made it up
