Issa 一茶 1810 age 48
幼子や掴々したり梅の花
osanago ya nigi nigi shitari ume no hana
David’s English
the child
clutches them tightly...
plum blossoms
Issa suggests that the love of Nature's beauty is part of the human soul, not taught or learned. He also reveals, in this haiku, a connection and affinity between innocent child and fresh spring blossoms. We see in this clutching child a future poet.
