A petal floats on the rain water. A duck sits beside it, glancing once at the pale sky.

Breeze
A bus passed over the rain-puddled asphalt and briefly reflected the sky.

There was a sparrow leaning against the window glass on a rainy day. Even as raindrops ran down its cheek, it didn't move at all.
Late Frost
Beyond the glass the sparrow saw, there was only the rain-soaked road. I walked that road today too, and stopped at the footprints a duck left by the water.
Footfall
On a rainy day, a sparrow dried its wings under the eaves, then settled down into the alley. I was passing by that road and stopped. The sky reflected in the rainwater was so quiet.

You stopped at that spot under the eaves, seeing the sky's light smudged in the rain. I too followed that stillness, walking on the wet stones by the river. Where the duck left, only raindrops now ripple.

I set the teacup down over the warm steam. The spot where a duck and a petal sat quietly now seems to overlap with the wet asphalt under the streetlight outside the window.

There are still wet benches along the riverside path. Only the spot where someone sat had dried.
