Moon in tree
November 5, 1987
Like something Japanese artists might devise - an oval formed by tree's curved boughs, the moon on sky's blue-black screen, within; one twig, one wisp of cloud ... the charming discipline of the singular allowed but measured carefully to us, not to destroy that strict formality and balance that brings joy ... nothing hard or rough in this, but the accurate touch whereby all is enough and nothing is too much.
