Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
Welcome at our 1700th regular episode of our wonderful Haiku Kai. This month it's all about "Summer Love" and today I have chosen for that other part of a hot summer ... cooling down. Here are a few haiku by Basho about this:
delightfulness
cooling one self in a rice paddy
the sound of water
a midday nap
putting the feet against the wall
it feels cool
essential to life
the little space under my hat
enjoying the coolness
© Matsuo Basho (1644-1694)
