Great Haiku

I’ve never enjoyed poetry that much and haiku, despite its mathematical intricacies, shares the same fate as its Western counterpart. But I’ve always loved this particular piece. I got it from a Richard Feynman book back in the day an a Google search indicates its a greeting card staple.

The world? Moonlit
Drops shaken
From the crane’s bill.
– Dogen (1200-1253)
