A feather-shorn crow Cackle-song from a dead branch November rain fall
Author: Yoshii The Bushido Poet
Yoshii the Bushido Poet is a Ninth-level Haiku master who hails from the Ishikawa Prefecture on Japan's "west coast" where his family - descendants of a long line of daimyo poets - still eke out a living salvaging debris from shipwrecks in the Sea of Japan.
Tuesday Haiku
A noisy, cold wind Whistles through the jail windows A lonely monkey
Wednesday Haiku
A cold wind blusters Trash skips and flutters ahead Storm drains to ocean
Thursday Haiku
A broken-down bus Wop-wops the crackled asphalt The mossy trees groan
Tuesday Haiku
Crows on a wire caw New plumage boldly flaunted An icy, false dawn
Thursday Haiku
Bronze bells peal loudly A green vine climbs the brick wall Three monkeys chatter
Saturday Haiku
A small drum beats time Acid rain falls in the square A beggar’s false smile
Monday Haiku
A cold wind whistles Crimson leaves flutter downward A lone coyote
Friday Haiku
A purple crab crawls Shafts of broken sunlight fade A hungry child weeps
Monday Haiku
The days grow longer But the dusk reaches forward Paper snowflakes fall
