Unfolding before
the eyes of a little bird
a bright camellia

Here is the original Haiku by Yosa Buson (1716 - 1784)
Unfolding at the
hand of the glass polisher:
a camellia!

Weekend Meditation #85: Photoshopping Haiku: Cherry Blossoms
Cherry Blossoms at Lake Biwa
even an old man
sees the beauty in the new
spring cherry blossoms
~Kobayashi Issa & Cie~
Notes:
Here is the original Haiku by Kobayashi Issa:
even an old man
has New Year's eyes...
cherry blossoms
In this exercise, we make a subtle change to the original Haiku. In Western society in the Northern Hemisphere, the New Year falls in Winter. I applied my Western sensibilities to the poem and turned the cherry blossoms into a reference for the change from Winter to Spring.
