While at Utsu Mountain in Suruga, he thought of someone he had been meeting and sent this to the capital.

するがなるうつの山邊のうつゝにも夢にも人にあはぬなりけり

suruga naru
utsu no yamabe no
utsutsu ni mo
yume ni mo hito ni
awanu narikeri
In Suruga
At the Utsu mountains
In truth and
In my dreams she
Is nowhere to be seen…

Ariwara no Narihira
在原業平
