P.S. I found an old journal entry with my favorite haiku. Regarding yours, it has a few levels of reading. In one, it reminds me of Chuang Tzu (on the Dao being everywhere and regarding everything with the same value, something like "The Dao is in the urine and the feces"); in another, it is humorous; it is also about proximity/contact with nature... and in a pervert's level, I could say that I love water sports, but not with horses!
P.P.S. I just noticed that you are not in this group. You may find it interesting.
So I presume you play either belly-dance or Irish music. In either case, you would be a great addition to this one. There is also a group for the former, which I appreciated watching in any style, and love listening to the Turkish one especially. What instrument(s) do you play?
You may like this very organized site (It is not one of the first to come with a Google search on "Basho" - and many of those are excellent - probably because it has a Russian major component.)
glad you like my and my name
