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'.

ah, Masago ... good to see you "showing" instead of "telling" ... nice one. ;-)
p.s. I still like #803.
p.p.s. there are approximately 980 extant hokku (haiku) by Basho written over a life spanning 50 years. you are already at #828!!!!
an excellent rewrite, masago. the ways it can take the reader...
Let's get out of the cold!!! Love it Vaughn!!
SB: Thank you for your kind remarks. Wow, I knew Basho wrote a lot of haiku...I didn't realize I was that close to how many he had written.
Polona: Thank you.
Pat: :-) Thanks.
