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'.

Link with 908: Going along
[I came out of the house on my way to work one morning not too long ago. As I walked from the house to the garage I was struck but what seemed to be bird tracks in the fresh snow running down the sidewalk. I was greatly amused to find at the end of the tracks a dried leaf that had blown there by the wind during the night.]
well done - I love your explanations
p.s.- your looking good for your age. (250) :)
true impression...it is nice Masago...
Bird saw the dead leaf, thought this could happen to me, and flew south. It's Monday.
And if the dead leaf gave us this ku, it's worth its weight in gold.
Hope it was a gold leaf!
excellent!
it snowed some 50 km from where i live today...
