I seem to be in minimalist mode to start the year. This one, which came to me via Sean the Sharpener, resonates with all the California rain:
Leaves falling,
lie on one another—
the rain beats on the rain
(tr. from Japanese by R.H. Blyth)

This simple poem was written around the time Milton wrote Paradise Lost. Something to ponder.
In my hut this spring
There is nothing
There is everything.
