A masterpiece by Kikaku:
the beggar!
he has Heaven and Earth,
for his summer clothes
Inspired the following haiku from me.
poor man’s eulogy –
autumn winds are blowing still
carrying his ash
Linked to Carpe Diem

His cigarette ash, that’s the only thing that he has that lends a change in his life! Nicely Bjorn!

Bjorn, A fitting photo for your well written piece. 🙂 —Susan
So much meaning in this haiku:
carrying his ash
pressed in icicles
remembered
And sometimes… ash of the honored also blows in the wind, by request.
…as where my fathers…So the only place to mourn is with the stars.
I am a fan of haiku. It takes skill and thoughtfulness to create much with little. You did it here. Glad I got to read it today!
poignantly written …
