Haiku: Crossing

Winter, sunny day;
honking geese crossing my path –
somewhere it’s raining

Haiku: Perception

No one is sitting
while light pervades frozen space –
the chair disappears

a rose flowering,
and there is blood on my hand;
I will not touch it

Matsuo Basho was one of the most famous Zen poets of Japan.
Matsuo Basho — Buddhism now

Faith you would destroy
though the mind will carry on –
another time comes
