Banditry-making mischief of the most serious matters
2 comments:
Hi, Bandit. Tito here! I like this rather nostalgic haiku - of a summer memory from long ago? BTW, someone from Macalester College, St. Paul, has just contacted me about a prospective trip to Japan late next year to research haiku and natural perspective here. Do you have any friends at that college yourself, I wonder? All the best. Tito
No friends at Mac, Tito. We used their track for many sporting events long ago, however.
The verse is not so old. It represents my two grand daughters.
Have that Mac student contact me if he should wish. I might learn something.
Thanks, Tito
