very, very nice masago -- particularly the implication that the cabbage moth bore a resemblance to the scattering leaves. i was watching one of these fluttering around the sand dunes here in a spring breeze last sunday -- it was so beautiful and delicate -- i was enthralled.
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'.
