Poem by Emperor Sanjo, from the series One Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poets Explained by an Old Nurse
A traditional Japanese building with a red and brown roof and a wooden veranda. A large white moon hangs in the night sky. Inside, there are people wearing traditional Japanese clothing. Some are kneeling on the green floor. Others are sitting on the red veranda floor. A person sits on the floor by a table to the left. Another person sits on the veranda to the right, looking at papers. There are papers on a veranda table. A woman in a green kimono stands on the veranda, looking out. A man kneels to her left. A woman on the left stands at an open doorway leading to a room with a green floor with a curtain covering part of it. The background is a body of water under a gray sky. A scroll hangs on the roof to the right.
