Haiku poet specializing in plants (Essay)

Geometry

I wonder if you master it

Spurge

It has been over 30 years since I started writing haiku. Initially, the subjects were wide-ranging, but plants have been the main focus for the past three years. The biggest reason for this is his style of presenting haiku poems with photographs.

When I was working on Japanese SNS, I belonged to one of the communities called ``Photo Gogyoka'' and created poems with tanka divided into 5 lines and a relaxed character limit. I learned that. When I applied this idea to haiku, I adopted this format because it allows me to express details that are difficult to imagine with just 17 characters.

However, I don't dislike animals, but they move so much that my photography skills can't capture them. No wonder there are so few haiku about birds. It is also difficult to express the contact between people's hearts and the depth of people's psychology. However, I can photograph plants and project my heart into them. I have much knowledge about plants.

Combining photography and haiku is a double-edged sword, favoring one direction while abandoning the other. ``People can only do what they are capable of doing.'' This is probably true. Today I will walk with my camera and hunt for plants.

植物専門の俳人（エッセイ）

私が俳句を始めてから３０年を超える。当初題材は多岐に渡ったが、ここ３年ほどは植物がメインになっている。その最大の理由は、写真と組み合わせて俳句を発表するスタイルを取っていることである。

私が日本のＳＮＳをやっていた時、コミュニティの一つ「Ｐｈｏｔｏ五行歌」に所属し、短歌を５行に分けて、字数制限を緩くした詩を作ったが、そこで詩と写真を組み合わせる面白さを学んだのだ。その発想を俳句に適用すると、１７文字では中々イメージしにくいディテールが表現出来るので、この形式を採用した。

ただし、私は動物も嫌いではないのだが、よく動くので、私の写真技術では捉え切れない。鳥を扱った俳句が少ないのも当然だ。また人の心の触れ合いとか人の心理の襞とかも表現しにくい。ただ植物は写真に収め、私の心を投影することはできる。私は植物の知識が豊富だ。

写真と俳句を組み合わせることは、諸刃の剣であり、一つの方向性には有利だが、他の方向性は捨てることになる。「人は、自分の出来るようにしか出来ない」――これは真理であろう。今日も私はカメラを持って散歩し、植物ハントする。

Monday April 17.

National Haiku Poetry Day.

Sometimes less really is more. And other times a lot less is a lot more. Which is why today, this Monday April 17, we are joining in the celebrations for National Haiku Poetry Day, as devised and implemented by The Haiku Foundation back in 2012. Because things don't get a lot more more for a lot less less than the old art of Haiku, in which a frog leaping in a pond, the profundity of a drop of few, the light of a candle, a blooming poppy, a howling wind, or the taste of rain can be distilled and expressed with such compelling and elusive intrigue—and such economy of words. These are works which require very little time at all in the act of reading, but sit and linger and echo for a long time thereafter. They resonate, in the truest sense of the word. Tumblr being Tumblr, the writing community here is home to more than a few talented Haiku poets, as you can see for yourself over at #haiku poetry.

And Tumblr being Tumblr, of course, this community is home to one particular talent notable in the art of Haiku: @the-haiku-bot, a bot which, in their own words: "Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up." This is a bot that can prise moments of poetry from even the most innocuous post, and, we would contend, makes the perfect way to celebrate #haiku poetry and today's national commemoration. Trans sex? 17 syllables? Your aunt? Long rants? The Turing test? There is nothing—nothing—this mysterious little bot cannot accomplish.

You don’t meet souls. You don’t go around looking for soul connections. It isn’t a choice and you recognise them immediately. And know that they’re rare. Not anyone you connect with is a soul connection. A true soul connection is immediate, mutual and life altering.

The moon. It’s waning, waxing

Poetic and blue.

Short autumn (verse)

Autumn leaves of Metasequoia

The autumn of 2023 was short.

With summer days remaining until mid-November,

It was only two weeks of autumn before it got cold.

At this rate, after a warm winter,

A short spring will come,

It will be a long summer.

I took two showers a day this summer

I survived the heat

Next year will be a longer and hotter summer.

In addition to responding to the body,

I am a haiku poet.

I mainly use my vision. that's why

Spring and autumn have the most haiku material.

It's a big problem to be short of them.

I can't write haiku, can I?

I will not contribute to global warming as much as possible.

As long as the world doesn't change

I will have to quit being a haiku poet.

2023.12.02

　　　　 Rei Morishita

短い秋（韻文）

２０２３年の秋は短かった。

１１月中旬まで夏日が残ったので、

１１月末に寒くなるまでたった２週間の秋だった。

この分だと、温かい冬のあと、

短い春が来て、

長い夏が続くだろう。

この夏、私はシャワーを２回浴びて

暑さを乗り切ったが

来年はもっと長くて暑い夏になるだろう。

体にこたえることはもとより、

私は俳句を詠む人だ。

私は視覚を主に使う。だから

もっとも俳句のネタが多い春と秋が

短くなるのは大変困る。

俳句が書けないではないか。

私は地球温暖化に出来うる限り寄与しないが

世界が変わらぬ限り

私は俳人を廃業しなくてはならないだろう。

Stone set upon stone

Cities drowning in grandeur
