This haiku by 18th century poet Buson is possibly my favourite of the Japanese masters. It captures the endless possibilities of the public domain that awaits every one of us just 'beyond the gate'. This image was taken just beyond my gate in Sydney this autumn morning.
For those of you that enjoy my images, I have put up a handful of illustration and photos on my new flickr site under 'Dalloway Fish'.
By all means drop by and feel free to comment.

Interested in Sydney's streets - real or imagined?
By all means join me at SydneySightLines until I unearth a few more haiku.

Thanks for your interest in Australian Haiku.
For the moment I am focusing on street life life around Sydney. You are invited to visit SydneySightlines.
Cheers, Dalloway
