Kobayashi Issa
What a strange thing
by Kobayashi Issa
What a strange thing!
to be alive
beneath cherry blossoms.

That wren
In the thicket's shade
The toad! It looks like
The pheasant cries
Napped half the day
Not very anxious
Visiting the graves
Under my house
In these latter-day
Under the image of Buddha
