Carpe Diem Haiku Buson's Scarecrow



 
Go to the scarecrow
For a talk
On loneliness

Like discussions
With scarecrows
They never argue

Is it moonlight
Or does the frost bite
Into scarecrow's shoulders

The actor in gold
Not moving like a scarecrow
Looking at both

  10. I'm very sure the scarecrow is well acquainted with loneliness, but he may not wish to talk about it!
