Trade Winds Blowing "Between the bamboos tall the moonlight softly trickles, and I hear the cuckoos call."... "Bamboos in the Moonlight" a poem by Basho (1643-1694) From the book "Little Pictures of Japan/My Travelship/1952/pg.40 You may ask me why am I here among the bamboos in the moonlight and I would reply; to rest my mind to soothe my soul to hear the sweet sounds of bamboo as trade winds blow...

Good takeoff of the original Basho poem . . . ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways ~*~ |
