Gate in ruins –
only the fiery wind
still open it

Storm-swept winter -
the old woman with a bread
dragging her boots

Orphan children –
the blizzard throwing the gate
maybe is my mother?

Third place

House of old people –
the last visitor shrouded
in blizzard

The blizzard roars –
in the yard of kindergarten
a creaky cradle

Storm –swept passage
a sparrow picking at
the blind man ’s bread
