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'.

1023. Up for Air?
Spring rain...
a worm stretches out
on a patio block.
Link with 1022: Sudden appearance.
[When it rains worms seem to come out of nowhere and you often see them on the sidewalks and the roads. I assume it is because it gets waterlogged down there in the dirt. If I was one of them I think I'd come up for air too.]
sometimes hundreds
It rained here all day, so I can really "see" this one.
loooove it!!

he wouldn't last long here - the robin who rules the garden would soon turn him into a snack :)
cheers
familiar scene...
it's mostly the blackbirds that make a snack out of them here :)
Pamela: Haven't seen that many but sometimes when it rains hard and a lot do come out.
Andrew, John: Thanks.
Floots: :-) Maybe our Robins are not all here yet from their wintering in the South. :-)
Polona: Them poor little critters, hit from all sides (reminds me of what some people I know are going through). I wonder what they do when there's no sidewalk (e.g. in the middle of a field)?
There should be a worm shelter for those flooded out.
I love the earthy richness of your work, Masago. Power to the planet earth and its subterranean population!
Ardi: Thanks for visiting and for your kind words!
