then the light will never cease to shine.

by the roadside

laying near the

side of the road

– a rabbit –

this Chinese New Year

Misty Rain

shrouded in misty rain - the harbour

perhaps the city beyond is just a myth

  

A New Month

sitting next to me

at the outdoor cafe.

"It's a new month" I said

"A new what?" 
he replied then
asked "have you 
finished with 
that muffin?"
