If you love nature, you’ll love the beautiful mid-twentieth century wood block art of Kawase Hasui. Gorgeous tranquil images … A few favorites, with accompanying haiku.

A Moonlit Bridge
Spring exuberance
Leap across! Into the moon’s
Maternal embrace

Lotus Pond
Psyche’s mysteries
The infinity beneath
The flowered surface.

The Magic Woods
Deep thoughts soar skyward
Tiny footsteps shaded by
A sacred forest.

Tengu Rock
Colored leaves dancing
Water falls into stillness
Quickening heart smiles

A Temple in Winter
The sleeping temple
Nature’s white season of peace
Our Earth, melting, weeps.
