Haiku about Spring (19)


On the afternoon of March 27, I visited the temple named Shouhei-ji (勝平寺) near my house in Akita-city (秋田市).

In the graveyard is an image of Buddha, which was built recently for those who died leaving nobody to look after their graves.

Visiting there, I found snowflakes wandering over the image of Buddha.

I felt as if each snowflake is the spirit of the victim killed by the earthquake and tsunami on March 11.

I also felt as if the spirits are crying in tears over Buddha, and Buddha did too.



Buddha

praying for spirits

in tears


精霊に涙の仏陀祈りけり

seirei ni namida no budda inori keri



Buddha

praying for survivors

in tears


仏涙や残りし者の幸祈る

butsu rui ya nokorisi mono no sachi inoru

The spring evening sun sometimes makes a miracle, creating a world of beauties and wonders.

My haiku is written about such a fantastic scene.


The setting sun

Haiku about Spring (16)


Here in Akita the spring sunlight has begun to shine beautifully everywhere.

We really welcome the coming of spring, relieved from the hard long winter.


Spring current

smiles in the sunlight

the Northern River


北の川春の流れや微笑する
Kita no kawa haru no nagare ya bishou suru




Spring angler

catches the sunlight

the Northern River


北の川春光を釣る漁師かな
Kita no kawa shunkou wo tsuru ryoushi kana
