Weekly Photo Challenge: Path

Following a path through the woods,
An ardent desire has gone back to your heart.
Quickening the steps involuntarily,
You just remember an empty cart.
It is the time to look back to the path you have been.
because you have mostly caught the goal to be seen.

As you know my native language is not English but Japanese. This year I have tried to write haiku or shot poems in English with unfamiliar words for me. I hope it went well.

母語は日本語だが、今年はなるべく普段は使わない単語を含んだ短い詩を書くよう試してきた。少しでもうまくいったのなら良いのだが。

Weekly Photo Challenge: Anticipation

with eager anticipation,
looking out of smudged window,
anxiety over imagination.

The picture was taken newly after I posted similar one. I felt someone gazing vacantly at the sea but with anticipation. It was just a scuttle – rounded window – of an old ocean liner but must have a story.

Instead of answering to the question “what are you waiting for”, I’d like to say what I’m looking for; it’s a creative imagination required for writing a story.

We can hardly find new horizon today and I’m not an exception. There’s hardly anything to explore here and there. Though I don’t like to say new year’s resolution, I’m going to step to writing works more.
