Haiku of Richard Wright(67)
(photo) walking
A long autumn day:
A wind blowing from the west,
But none from the east.
長き秋の日
西から一陣の風
東からはなにも
(Hohsai)
秋日さす石の上に脊の児を下ろす
On the stone in the autumn sunshine
I put the child
From my back.
■I'm interested in " A long autunm day," because an autumn day in Japan is very short. The rhythm is impressed that " A wind blowing from the west, But none from the east" has. I think Hohsai's haiku has affection for the child. It seems to me that it was in a cold autumn day that he created the haiku.
