Winter waterfall a rock untouched by sunrise or sunset

young grasses -
not yet bent
in any direction

by: Kaga no Chiyo

Kaga no Chiyo-jo (1703–1775) was a haiku poet discovered by Kagami Shiko at a very young age. She became a Buddhist nun at 52 and wrote around 1,900 haiku in her lifetime. A highlight of her poetry career was presenting haiku to a Korean delegation in 1763, one of the first cultural exchanges of this kind.

Not yet bent (naviarhaiku608)

It's made so that each of the parts could be taken off and put together in a new position, and then it would be all different just like with a human being.
