Since I still don't understand some of these types of poetry, I loved this. I thought it helped me understand haikus a little more. Beautiful.

Short Basho poems are not my forte, but as normal haikus, I loved them all. Hugs.

The third line of every stanza says Basho--and the last haiku says it all.

I like this one very much, MRR. I don't know if it's what Damned I-Be is looking for, but it's a keeper in my humble opinion. Good luck!
