Haiku about Mt. Chokai


It was in autumn that I climbed Mt. Chokai.

Now it is early in winter.


Mt. Chokai ―

white at the summit

gold below


鳥海山頂白く麓秋

Chokaisan itadaki shiroku fumoto aki



Mt. Chokai

goes to sleep ―

the past year


鳥海山眠りつきしや年暮れる

Chokaisan nemuri tsuki shi ya toshi kureru



― Hidenori Hiruta

  3. Hello Hirtua San!

    You are most welcome; I enjoy exchanging comments with you. I apologize that the photo reference was unclear. It does mean “photo prompt from Day 21.” The link is attached to “photo prompt from Day 21 – Tell a story – Pen a poem – Write an essay – Sing a song – Create a title or caption” to a site called “Stories Without Words”. If you follow the link, it should take you to a photo of a red-headed girl leaning against a tv roof antena. My haiku references the British poet Tennyson’s poem, “The Lady of Shalott.”

    I look forward to Part 2 of Haiku by Mr. Marshall Hryciuk.

    Sincerely,
    Yousei Hime

    I visited once (but by car) on the way to Gassan and Haguro san. Brings back memories!
