Three Haikus From Different Views

Li Po

Three Haikus From

Different Views

1) If Li Po Were Looking

Out My Window

Naming birds in the

Courtyard all day my wine and

My cares fly away

2) If Cid Corman Were Looking

Out My Window

Taking care to name 

each bird in the trees I find

by night my cares flown

3) If I Had Written the Haikus

I Had Just Written

Naming each bird in

The Sky I become father

To many small cares
