5 Haikus

"Five-Seven-Five syllables
An art called Haiku".


No blossoms and no moon,
and he is drinking sake
all alone!

Basho, Matsuo. (1644-1694).

Estoy aquí
por estar, y la nieve
sigue cayendo.

Issa. (1762-1826).

In all this cool
is the moon also sleeping?
There, in the pool?

Ryusui. (1691-1758).


Noche sin fin.
Por detrás de la puerta
una candela pasa.

Shiki, Masaoka. (1867-1902).

No sky
no earth - but still
snowflakes fall

Hashin
