Today’s Haiku (September 16, 2023)

毬（いが）は海を　　　海胆（うに）は林を夢想して　　伊丹啓子

iga wa umi o            uni wa Hayashi o musōshite

            a burr dreams about the ocean

            a sea urchin dreams about woods

                                                            Keiko Itami

from Haidan, (Haiku Stage) a monthly haiku magazine, September 2017 Issue, Honami Shoten, Tokyo

Fay’s Note:   There is intentional space in the Japanese original.   It is a style of her haiku group founded by her father, Mikihiko Itami (1920-2019).
