I pause to watch
the moon riding the clouds
the boy tugs my hand

    This is sabi/wabi at its most forceful: the father
    has reached the age of observation, he pauses
    for the deep act of moon-watching. The boy,
    like all boys, is impatient and wants to move
    along. All of life process here, as in the best haiku.
