Master of his days,
Could Sisyphus be happy?
Camus says he is.

Northwood wins 3-2
IHF Finals next week
May the best team win

Grammatically incorrect — “best” should be “better” — but it’s okay because I’ve got a poetic license!

It’s right here in my wallet . . .

Outside my window
Somewhere in the big pine tree
A bird is singing.

Winter Haikus

21 Dec 2008 / PE
Winter night

Outside the window, snow,
A woman in a hot bath
Overflowing.

— Nobuku Katsura

See the river flow
In a long unbroken line
On the field of snow.

– Boncho

Confined within doors
A priest is warming himself
Burning a Buddha statue.

— Natsume Soseki

Through snow,
Lights of homes
That slammed their gates on me.

— Buson

On a withered bough
A crow alone is perching,
Autumn evening now.

— Basho

The wild geese take flight
Low along the railroad tracks
In the moonlit night.

— Shiki
