wisteria beans
let’s make that a theme for haikai
a flower fruit
Basho (Tr. Jane Reichhold)
dreaming of heady fragrance
until small brown seeds take root

My response to Carpe Diem Tan Renga Wednesday #14: Wisteria Beans
In today’s episode of the special feature, Tan Renga Wednesday, our challenge is to complete a Tan Renga by adding our two-lined stanzas to a haiku by Basho.
A heady fragrance indeed. Those pods are certainly impressive in their own way.
