Haiku Fragrance of Summer




Painting roses
Leaves might be hard
But thorns hurt

The moon does not care
Being gazed at or not
Resting in herself

Between the graves
A Buddha keeping the watch
Fragrance of incense

Thunderstorm passing
Ground is heating up again
Cicadas chirping

Abandoned tea hut
Tokonoma left empty
A creeper in bloom

As if
The spider in the net
Was listening to music

Siesta past noon
Feet on the cool wooden bench
Cat's purring

Two cicadas
On a long morning
Sun climbing up
