HAIKU MUSIC CHALLENGE

Naviarhaiku 555

they spoke no words
the visitor, the host
and the white chrysanthemum

For this week's challenge, I picked another poem by Ōshima.

Ōshima Ryōta was a Japanese poet of the Edo period. Some sources say he was a disciple of Yosa Buson, while others say his master was Hattori Ransetsu. He's mostly remembered for his essay “Bashō ku kai” 芭蕉句解 ('Study of Bashō's haiku') published in 1759, a magnum opus of his studies and literary theories on Matsuo Bashō's work.

Genkaibō was a Japanese poet and monk from the Edo period.

Despite my best efforts, I couldn't find more information about him. I came across this poem in The Penguin Book of Haiku, but there's no mention of Genkaibō's life or other works. I also found one of his poems in a 1991 edition of the Frogpond haiku journal. If anyone else has more information on this mysterious haiku poet, please get in touch and I'll update the description.

Regarded as the father of contemporary haiku, Masaoka Shiki was a poet and literary critic during the Meiji period Japan.

He advocated realistic observation by “sketching” (shasei) poems and going out into nature with notebooks, thus abandoning the traditional subjects of haiku of the time. His advice for an aspiring poet was, “Use both imaginary pictures and real ones, but prefer the real ones.”
