Carpe Diem #1142 Honshu, the "main island"


land of rising sun
emerge as tatsu from sea
aglow in the night

    I used to think about going to Japan. My father was there many times (Navy) and I was used to his coming and going and returning again. He always brought back the most wonderful gifts. Dolls. Transistor radios. Jewelry boxes. My mother's china. I still have two dolls and gratefully, my mother's Nortaki China. I would still love to go there and walk in his footsteps.

      Thanks, Nicole. It is always fun to read about the culture to find new ways and words for the haiku.
