連夜雨や布団の中の暖かさ
renya u ya futon no naka no atatakasa
raining through the night,
how warm and comfy is my bed!

暑き日の猫の枕や脱いだ靴
atuki hi no neko no makura ya nuida kutu
cat's pillow on a freaking hot day:
my shoes.

灰色の朝の寒さや猫を抱く
hai iro no asa no samusa ya neko wo daku
the chill of a grey morning
embraces a cat.

虹色の泡が現わすモニターかな
niji iro no awa ga arawasu monitaa kana
rainbow-colored bubbles emerge
from my monitor.

若草をさわる老樹の触手かな
wakakusa wo sawaru rouju no shokushu kana
fondling the tender grass,
tentacles of the ancient tree.

人黙る電車中アド叫びけり
hito damaru densha chuu ado sakebi keri
speechless people on the train,
only the ads scream.

街灯を逃れる影と闇夜かな
kaitou wo nogareru kage to yamiyo kana
shunning the streetlamp-
my shadows and the deep night.
白菊先生、約束した二月の俳句です。

i might do calligraphy for some of these verses up there.

Wonderful images! My favorite has to be:

"shunning the streetlamp-
my shadows and the deep night."

It's fun to think about the absence of a thing as being a thing itself, like sorrow or a bubble. hmm.
