dawn, daylight, dusk & night

Without my journey,
And without the spring,
I would have missed this dawn.
Shiki
The scarlet leaves of autumn
Pale before the sight
Of waving green rice fields.
Kikusha-Ni
The winter gale
Blows the evening sun
Into the sea.
Soseki
The sweet spring night
Of cherry blossom viewing
Has ended.
