Spring Pictures

Take my hand,
we'll explore the Floating World,
let us smile at the fisherman's wife
as she enjoys the the embrace of tentacles.
We shall peep
around the corner of paper walls,
at the tangled limbs of strangers,
as they ignore the arrival of priests.
We will lie
in fond remembrance - embracing
each the other - oblivious to the people
outside our own woodcut world.
