#130 – Famous haiku to cool you down
staring delighted
even at walking horses
in new morning snow

walking through the snowy street
echoing dog-bark

In that cold darkness
my horse stumbled suddenly
just outside the house
Buson

early spring sun sets
along the uneven boardwalk

#125- hunter
sitting by the shore
watching a spirited gull
