Cranes stalking across A half harvested rice field The village autumn -Basho

Will that very peach come floating down the small stream? The mists of springtime. -Issa

A clam from its shell To futami departing An autumn farewell -Basho

On a brank floating downriver a cricket, singing -Issa

Squatting motionless The sun-tanned child and the toad stare at each other. -Issa

In the strangeness of the nighttime a fox crawls along the earth towards a melon -Basho

Leaves of the Two Moon waiting in the village of fire-fallowed fields -Basho

Buying leeks and walking home under the bare trees. -Buson
