Silence and Stones

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

A Special Gallery of Silence

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::


shizukesa ya iwa ni shimiiru semi no koe

静けさや岩に染み入る蝉の声

deep silence -
the shrill of cicadas
seeps into rocks

grosse Stille -
das Schrillen der Zikaden
dringt in die Felsen


(Tr. Gabi Greve)

Matsuo Basho

Noguchi
the silence of water
over stone

Isamu Noguchi: Water Stone


:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::


Inspired by the haiku of Linda and the co-incidence of my photo the same day


autumn brook
the silence of sunshine
on water





::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::






talk to me -
your moving silence
makes me shiver


More of my Silence Haiku from Koya-san in Wakayama


enchanted roof -
my mind floats
in silent circles
