Carpe Diem 1700



© Matsuo Basho (1644-1694)




essential to life
the little space under my hat
enjoying the coolness

Matsuo Basho

an ice pack fits perfectly
my tired throbbing brain chills out


a midday nap
putting the feet against the wall
it feels cool

Matsuo Basho


the ants crawl across the bricks
dazzled by shiny red toenails

delightfulness

cooling oneself in a rice paddy
the sound of water

Matsuo Basho

pitter patter  rain drops fall
the monsoon has arrived
