3 spring haiku

Haru no mizu yama naki kuni wo nagare keri
The water of spring
Flows through
A mountainless country.
-Buson


Nan no ki no hana towa shirazu nioi kana
From what flowering tree
I know not,-
But ah, the fragrance!
-Bashô

Nureashi de suzume no ariku rôka kana
The sparrow hops
Along the verandah,
With wet feet.
-Shiki
