Japanes lanterns and Earthquake in Japan

Japanese lanterns
in the gathering gloom
glowing faintly red.

Earthquake in Japan -
tsunami waves hit our shores.
Still, the laundry waits…

The piece about the lanterns was written on 3/8/11, a few days before the earthquake (3/11/11) which is the subject of the second piece. There is absolutely no disrespect intended with that second piece, simply an observation that life goes on. My heart goes out to the people of Japan. As one living in California, I know well the particular terror earthquakes can bring.
