Carpe Diem Sparkling Stars No. 23 Soseki's "gingko leaves are falling"

 

At Wonsan harbour

The gingko trees shed their leaves

Being bored to death

A yellow lantern

The gingko tree is waiting

Leaves falling like hair

This frosty autumn

The gingko tree’s fallen leaves

Just count hundred eight

PS. Wonsan harbour is in North Korea. Hardly any ship calls at Wonsan, which is strange as this naval town is big enough with about 330,000 inhabitants, but North Korea is strange anyway.
