old staple theme



David’s English
beach plovers
raise a ruckus...
the dog runs away

ura chidori naki taterarete inu nigeru
一茶
.浦千鳥鳴立られて犬逃る

by Issa, 1825

From old time, there are many poets who made poems on plovers.
Issa would feel to be chased by those poets like as the dog

定番の季題に参る一茶かな
teiban no kidai ni mairu Issa kana

Issa overwhelmed
