Dear friends of MLMM,
It’s my pleasure to create a new Heeding Haiku With … for you. Recently I “changed” the idea to create haibun or haiku bi-weekly into a symbiosis between haibun and haiku, Symbiosis of two wonderful forms of Japanese poetry and I like that idea. I see how you all have embraced this new way of Heeding Haiku With … and I hope this “change” will be succesful.
Today I have a nice haiku by one of our classical haiku poets to inspire you to create a haibun or a haiku. This week I have chosen for a haiku by Issa:
kusa no ha [ya] ame ni magirenu aki no tsuyu
blades of grass–
lost among the raindrops
autumn dew
© Issa (1810)(tr. David Lanoue)
The challenge for this week is to create a haibun (with a maximum of 300 words, including the haiku) or a haiku (or haiku revision) inspired on this beautiful haiku by Issa.
Have fun!
