A bamboo-leaf boat
sways in the wake of a carp.
Winter will come soon.


Hi Lee. I've been finding these threads very interesting, and couldn't resist putting in a haiku of my own. Obviously L3 isn't so much an image as a thought, or an observation - is that acceptable haiku practice?

I know I should really be writing haiku about London, but I was living in Japan when I originally wrote a poem using this image, so the whole bamboo/carp thing isn't just japonisme for the sake of it.
