Three Kyoto Photo Haiku

  • January 12, 2024
  • By John Dougill
Three Kyoto haiku with photos.
  • Poetry
  • haiku, Kit Nagamura, Kyoto, photography

deep winter
in the comb tines
a single white hair


whitewater
instead of the bridge
choosing the long way around


the moment you know
the moment mutable
wild cherry blossoms

  • Poetry
  • haiku, Kit Nagamura, Kyoto, photography
