Kazuko and Mizuki

Kazuko shook a piece of paper
Wrinkled it up with ink
Random strikes trickling down
The most magical waterfall.

Mizuki plucked a string plank
All the way back to Edo
Rapier plectrums
Slicing sweet sakura melodies.


I wrote this in the car on the way back from seeing Kazuko Mukoyama and Mizuki Hamada - masters of Sume-i and Koto respectively. Both together are like wine and cheese.
