Dreams of Jade: 7 Haiku

1

Dust
seeks entry into
a crystal sphere

2

a memory --
moonlight falling
on the sun

3

Head on a pillow
of withered flowers
she dreams of jade

4

hanging from a cloud
the tower practices
non-attachment

5

In the Forbidden City
a jade pepper
no one has tasted

6

In late winter
marigold skeletons
are beige

7

In the river
the women's feet
looking for jade
