Haiku on photo #15
INOUE, Seigetsu (1822?-1887) is a legendary bleaching haiku-poet in Japan.
In this season in Japan, we have evening shower so often. We call it ''夕立YUDACHI'' in Japanese. This haiku poetry expresses the wind which blows the clouds of the shower to flow away.
''なぐれ（る）NAGURE(-RU)'' is not an accurate Japanese verb but it'll mean as same as ''ながれ(る)NAGARE(-RU)'', flow or stream in English. ''戦ぎSOYOGI'' means the condition of rustlring and stiring grasses with wind, or sometimes can be the verb for wind.
The view and smell of rice field are very familiar for the most of Japanese. But today, it becomes not so much for the people live in big cities.
