This time on Carpe Diem Time Machine we are looking back at a haiku, written by Basho. It was a part of his haibun “The Narrow Road to the Deep North”:
* * *
the rough sea
flowing toward Sado Isle
the River of Heaven
* * *
Here’ s my attempt not to wander too far from the same mood and spirit:
* * *
an empty boat
drifting along moonlit path
to the other shore
* * *
moonit path…so romantic!
