Farewell Asagi |
---|
namaste little Yebisu
a broken tail mended
we cast ye off into the waters
where a mortal life foregone
the stairwell once found
to thy gentle divinity
namaste. we bow to thee.
may thy form restored
grace the great oceans
once more
and the babbling brooks
and the little ponds
that the myriad creatures
in these aqueous domains
under thy safekeeping
come again
and may my gentle friend
that sweet-tempered Asagi
the one that loves to eat
in his raiment of brilliant oranges
thy company keep
