Camella/Tsubaki/椿

A Camella Blossom
in the Prime of Her Life

Wildflowers

Wildflowers on the roadside, they too, are beautiful.

The Straw Doll

On the wall of a farmer’s house
I met this little girl.
She’s made of rice-straw
And her eyes are fashioned from pieces of wood.
She doesn’t feel cold and she doesn’t get old.
