Basho: The Complete Haiku - Matsuo Basho - A Short Summary & Review

A short summary of the book Basho: The Complete Haiku:

Hokku from the Edo Period.

"He drinks morning tea. The monk is at peace with all. Chrysanthemums bloom."

How did these make you feel?

Do poems need to be lengthy to contain meaning?

I love these!

So simple, yet so deep.

Forever re-readable.
