    Post to the wind

    a man can spend his life
    looking for the perfect cherry blossom
    and it would not be a wasted life
    the wind whispers a yamabushi is returning

    rain follows the warrior
    in life and battle
    and glorious death
    a lone horagai mourns the mist

    to the wind that journeys
    from the mountain to the sea
    we are all the same
    of no importance

    wind brings change
    change brings progress
    something oft neglected
    will see effort again

    Sounds err... different.

    a sword is swiftest
    when justice carries it
    my son returns
    on it's wings



    i am a messenger

    for many years a samurai has been absent from his lands,
    he has travelled far,
    fought many battles against men, and demons;
    he has kept his honour throughout and is, finally, on his journey home.

    He has missed his friends,
    for none could travel with him,
    the way was treacherous and the destination unknown,
    but he journeys home in company.

    Thanks for these very nice poems. They seem to be in a free form except for the 4 line verse common to all, so not a strict traditional form of Japanese poem. So I would say it's probably gendai-shi style poetry.
