MATSUO BASHO: PENETRATES THE SILENCE IN THE ROCK

UCCELLI.1The silence

penetrates into the rock

a song of cicadas.

 

 

 

DONNAGIAPPONESE.1The first snow!

Just to fold

the leaves of asphodel.

 

 

 

PAESAGGIO.2.1Traveling, sick

the way of my dreams

on a marsh drained.

 

 

GENNAIO.1

The old pond!

The frog dives –

The sound of water.
