Thoughts, memories, impressions and adventures unleashed…
This week the source of inspiration on Carpe Diem Sparkling Stars is a haiku, written by the haiku master Matsuo Basho:
* * *
the autumn full moon:
all night long
I paced round the lake.
* * *
I tried to stay close to the same mood and spirit when writing mine:
* * *
after storm
on maple’ s bare branches
only full moon
* * *
reaching up
eager to touch the moon
even mountain top
* * *
up all night
howling at the moon
neighbour’ s dog
* * *
Watch the Birdie!

I really like your haiku – personally I think the last one has a real Basho feel. 🙂

What a beautiful trio Ese and as has been said in one of the other comments that last haiku is very close to the original haiku by Basho … thank you for sharing.
