Today’s Haiku (January 28, 2012)

雪中の草一本を杖として　　　　宇多喜代子

secchû no kusa ippon o tsue to shite

            one stem of grass

            in snow

            as my walking stick

                                                            Kiyoko Uda

from ‘Haiku,’ a monthly haiku magazine, December 2011 Issue, Kadokawa Gakugei Shuppan, Tokyo
