Hi David,

Thanks for your comment. Being new to Haiku, I had not heard of Basho until this morning and therefore look forward to reading his work.

I was, however, reading the bible and came across this passage;

'What has been is what will be,
and what has been done is what will be done,
and there is nothing new under the sun.'
Ecclesesiates 1:9

Regards.

Phoebe.
