| A snowmelt river in Japan |
"haru" is one part (Spring) of my poem Haiku originally published in Modern Haiku, Volume 37.1, Winter-Spring 2006, and subsequently in my second full-length poetry collection, Glad and Sorry Seasons (Biblioasis 2014).
The other three seasons haiku are available in both of the above mentioned publications.
HERE is an article (from 2015) about El Niño's effect on winters in Japan.
haru
a bush warbler sings
beside the snowmelt river
through mist-muffled air
[Translated by Google below] I wish I could speak/write/understand Japanese . . .
春 雪解けの川のほとりで
ウグイスが鳴く
霧に覆われた空気の中
