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'.

1011. Chivalrous Gesture

Link with 1010: Replaced.
[We were taught growing up that on a bus one was to give up one's seat to the elderly and to ladies. Not all such gestures, though, had completely chivalrous motives.]

long time since i've been on a bus though
cheers
Did it pay off??
i've always been the one offering my seat... until earlier this year when a chap much older than me offered me his. made me think... :)
Floots: Yeah, me too. :-)
Pat: I don't think so.
Polona: Hmmm...times change, eh? :-)
Ah, Vaughn, I'm at the age when women start offering me their seat.
...not completely chivalrous motives? Hmm...
A nice idea for senryu.
Bill: *LOL*
