Default Re: Post your favorite poem (by yourself or others)

The old pond
A frog jumps in
The sound of water

-Basho


Tiny acorn seed
Weathers the seasons each year
A towering oak

Uncompromising
You must obey its rules
The laws of nature

What’s a warrior?
One who never flees nor fears
The moment’s challenge

Wealth is very good
Peace of mind even better
Wealth and peace of mind

School starts today!
Soon my head will be filled with
More useless knowledge

Intelligent man
Exhausting twelve hour work days
Meanwhile, my dog naps

-Kintamayama
