Haiku in English 0312

I chose this haiku from Mainich newspaer
moonlight ...
colors disappear
under the snow
--
Rosa Maria Di Salvatore (Catania, Italy)
 
It is a very beautiful Haiku, isn't it.
This winter I couldn't experience deep snow.



A hidden inn
finally stay there one night
snow swirling

Snow is a seasonal word for winter.
Today I use this seasonal word "thank-you party for teachers".

Unfortunately, here in Japan because of coronavirus, most of graduation ceremony is hold on a reduced scale. And most of graduation parties are canceled.

Thank-you party for teachers --- bouquets lining up, glossily at the shop
 
Well, on the other hand in Spring we visit our ancestor's graves with bouquets.
Spring equinox --- yellow flowers bouquets, waiting at the shop

Toda's drill is try to make you Haiku dynamic in perspective.
The seasonal words are spring sea, summer sea, autumn sea, and winter sea.
You chose one thing under your hands.
 


spring sea__ toss and catch, by myself
summer sea__ pick up a empty can, wait for tomorrow.
autumn sea__ a dozen of color pencils under my hands
Winter sea__ see a empty shell , remind myself
