Haiku: The bamboo forest

 Bamboo Forest in Arashiyama, Japan

gentle sway of breeze

brush of bamboo leaves - music

strings the night in gold

~0~0~0~

above lantern lights

moon sparkles like diamond,

beating steadfast heart

~0~0~0~

my mother tells me:

grow upright like a bamboo

& nourish your sons
