No… I cheated by mentioning that in the title.
In my defense, though, I’ve noticed that even the old Japanese masters used to cheat like this – occasionally. I’ve read too, that many of their haiku were situated by Haibun or part of Renga.
This is different to your others… a different pace entirely…
Love the idea that this was written for the spring equinox, though I wouldnt have picked that up from the words alone – would make a good haiga…
Anyway, Im missing the point… its a very sexy ku, Patrick
