where's my previous comment!? - not the first time blogger swallowed them... never mind, i'll say again: i really like this one, and i feel that basho echo, too.
From "The Haiku Anthology" I became interested in Haiku and I have since written numerous haiku, senyru, and tanka. "Masago", my haiku pen-name, means "grain(s) of sand" in Japanese. I have recently started learning Esperanto and Japanese. A few years ago I developed a new eastern verse form which we now call 'Renhai'.

Smart frog!! Like this one alot!!
Just right. The Basho echo doesn't stop this from being your own, and one to be proud of at that.
good one!
Thanks everyone. BTW, I can see the Basho echo however it wasn't intentional.
:) this made me smile
