Haiku by Hisajo Sugita


O flower garment!
When I take it off,
Many strings coil around me.

Flowers of morning glory.
The sky above this street
Begins to overcast.

In a day of chrysanthemums
I shake and comb my wet hair
Letting the drops fall.

Hardly a word spoken
The man and his wife part -
Autumn nightfall

Chasing a butterfly
Deep into the spring woods
I am lost
