On love and barley - Haiku of Basho

Basho2003
Book
Basho, one of the greatest of Japanese poets and the master of haiku, was also a Buddhist monk and a lifelong traveller. His poems combine 'karumi', or lightness of touch, with the Zen ideal of oneness with creation. Each poem evokes the natural world and these translations capture the artistry of the originals.
