The only time I ever felt I truly connected with the haiku form was a couple of nights ago looking at a Hello Kitty day planner (2006?!) at the Virgin Megastore (internationally renowned book store, of course) and realizing they were dotted with these nuggets of contemporary verse. Since WWPD is has of late been intrigued by the curious world of JAPanese culture I thought some of these were all too appropriate to share:
"Seagulls may swoop low,
But I only hear the wind.
Kitty in motion!"
"With a splash we leap
and plunge beneath the surface!
oops- I lost my bow!"
"Entranced by the koi
I did not hear you approach
won't you walk with me?"
"Seagulls may swoop low,
ReplyDeleteBut I only hear the wind.
Kitty in motion!"
Wow, I may have to find myself one of those planners. . .
welcome back!!!
