ふらここの影がふらここより迅し　　　齋藤朝比古

furakoko no kage ga furakoko yori hayashi

            a swing’s shadow

            it is faster

            than a swing

                                                Asahiko Saito

from ‘Ruijitsu’(‘Day After Day’) haiku collection by Asahiko Saito, Kadokawa Shoten, Tokyo 2013

Fay’s Note: “buranko’ or ‘furakoko’ (swing) is a spring kigo.
