About Masago
- Masago
- Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
- 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'.

our neighbor has a black walnut tree.. and the crows pick them and drop them on the asphalt. They wait for cars to run over them or sometimes they will crack open when then hit.
so this was very real to me

Very much in the spirit of Socrates and his often repeated saying: I know just one thing,
that is, that I know nothing!:)) What do we know after all!??:) Started exploring your blog with your ‘junk yard’!:) What follows is clear-cut haiku! No left-overs!:) Intriguing titles!:)
I like Pamela's comment. I knew crows were wise, but didn't know they use cars...!:))
pamela: :) I giggled so much my wife came and asked what's wrong with me. Me? The crows having a problem?
Borut: The wise crows started to use cars something around 1940-?
Masago: as you notice nobody asked anything from you?
Pamela: very good!
Borut: So true...thanks for your kind words.
Tikkus: What do you mean?
