haiku #615: reminding me not to forget / a toad goes out / to the verdant world

Little song for Fusae Fubasami haiku:
"Reminding me not to forget
a toad goes out
to the verdant world."

To the verdant toad (naviarhaiku615)

Those who follow halF unusuaL unusually carefully will recognise some of the elements in this piece come from an exploration of GRM Tools Atelier (which has just been released) and sounds you hear here are 'stolen' from that first little experiment you can see at https://youtu.be/Cj0mKQF2Cew ...

reminding me not to forget
a toad goes out
to the verdant world

Fusae Fubasami (1914–2014) was a Japanese poet from Tokyo. In 1944, she became associated with Dakotsu Īda and the haiku journal Unmo (雲母), later joining Yatsuka Ishihara’s group Aki (“Autumn”) in 1961.
