Carpe Diem Tan Renga Challenge Month May 23rd: "one step outside" by Tagami Kikusha

Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

Sorry for this belated episode of our Tan Renga Challenge Month. During the nightshift I can not always publish on time.

Today I have a nice "hokku" for you by a classical haiku poetess, Tagami Kikusha (1753-1826)

one step outside
the temple gate, its Japan --
a tea picker's song
