Waves foaming
Cool breeze o'er the ocean
Mermaids sing

Carpe Diem Special
suzukaze ya koku ni michite matsu no koe
the cool breeze
fills the empty vault of heaven
with the voice of the pine-tree

Song of the mermaid is always beautiful :-)
ReplyDeleteI can see their heads in that dazzling blue sea....
ReplyDeleteYou can never go wrong with mermaids in poetry
ReplyDeleteI'm delighted to see that someone strayed away from the pine and took inspiration from another part of Onitsura's haiku!
ReplyDeleteSeductive Pine
Beautiful ambience in this glimpse of sea worlds!
ReplyDeleteLove the Haiku. Often, at the Sea, I have sworn I've heard the song of Mermaids. Usually after I've had a couple of beers - but sometimes stone, cold sober.
