to the man walking
“Look behind you!”
windblown butterfly ~ Issa (cited: www.haikuguy.com)

Spring has its hundred flowers,
Autumn its moon,
Summer has its cooling breezes,
Winter its snow.
If you allow no idle concerns
To weight on your heart,
Your whole life will be one
Perennial good season. ~The Golden Age of Zen

Though days pass
And others may forget
I can never lose the thought
That meeting in the evening
Of an Autumn day. ~The Dairy of Izumi Shikibu (cited: Diaries of Court Ladies of Old Japan)
