Some Winter Haiku

 

Hasui Kawase

"life in this world 

 just like a temporary shelter 

 from a winter shower"             


     ― Sogi  (tr. Makoto Ueda) 

   "The snow, 

 As I watch, 

 Keeps falling and falling."   Santoka  


"softly gently -- 

 cold weather creeps 

 into Kyoto"     Issa Kobayashi 


being alive 

in the shadow 

of cherry blossoms  

Issa

without looking back leaving one home for the next
