in dream world
was I laughing at a turtle?
winter seclusion

Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Kobayashi Issa was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun. If you want to find out more about this prolific author I suggest you check out this database of his haiku.

Early Morning Star (naviarhaiku492)

Messed around in MuseScore for this week's challenge, for something different.

Early morning,
One star remaining,
It’s a good day too.

A wandering poet and ascetic Zen priest, Santōka was a disciple of Ogiwara Seisensui, one of the first poets to discard the traditional use of the 5-7-5 structure in haiku.

Santōka’s poetry emphasizes the necessity of sabi (solitude) in order to achieve spiritual enlightenment and serenity.

Desolate Whispers [naviarhaiku493]

Marco's lovely haiku inspired this improvisation, played originally on Mai Tai VST synth (within Studio One 6). Because I'm not yet used to working in Studio One, I had a few problems and moved it into my usual DAW, Reaper, then did some quite heavy editing before mastering with CloudBounce. It's a bit of a mash-up but I hope it captures the feel of a desolate street at dawn...  :)
