Handout　１、Not a haiku but a very short, beautiful poem about spring: 

Robert Frost

Nothing Gold Can Stay

Nature’s first green is gold,

Her hardest hue to hold.

Her early leaf’s a flower;

But only so an hour.

Then leaf subsides to leaf.

So Eden sank to grief,

So dawn goes down to day.

Nothing gold can stay.

Summer in Ezo         Tr. Carol Ruth Kimmel

“The 'tanpopo' (dandelion) haiku was composed in 1927 when Takako accompanied her husband on a trip to Karafuto, the northernmost islands of pre-WWII Japan. Sakhalin, as the island is now called, is a long island (north to south) to the direct north of Hokkaido, and is a Russian territory. Japanese people in Edo period used the word 'Ezo' to mean Karafuto Island,”  Yachimoto
