Bicycle Lane

I was impressed with the communication power of this graphic on our second visit to Japan. jhh



Viata la oras--
de cand nu am vazut
o stea cazotoare?



Life in the city--
when did I last see
a falling star?

Radu Patrichi
(Romania)

from William J. Higginson, 
Haiku World; AN INTERNATIONAL POETRY ALMANAC,
Kodansha America, 1996, page 187.


This wonderful haiku book by the late master of haiku
has an emphasis on poems illustrating 
the use of season words (kigo) in haiku.
