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

Quotes of the Day
Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity.
• Henry Van Dyke
