Mid-Autumn · Tea Beneath the Moon

Steam rises from tea on a small table along the ridge, beneath osmanthus branches and the moon. A rabbit waits at the foot of the steps.

Osmanthus and Moon

Tea steams on a small table on the dark ridge; osmanthus branches reach past the moon.

The moon rises as the tea’s steam fades.

Steps rise towards the moon, with a small rabbit resting on the lowest tread.

A full moon rests in a cup-shaped mountain hollow, beyond which a few windows glow.
