Very interesting!
Poetry is treated badly by everyone because, very often, it reflects one's feelings.
I would say almost introspective, and that might make people afraid.
Very interesting poem (or passage about the "summer grass": it reminds me a lot of a famous poem by an Italian writer Ungaretti.
"Soldiers:
You stand like
of autumn
on the trees
the leaves."
To many people it might not mean anything, but in reality being a soldier is like being the leaves of autumn: at any moment you could fall...

Yeah, I'd say that's a fair guess. Feelings in general make us uncomfortable. Hmm... come to think of that, as society moves more in the direction of being more accepting of feelings and the expression of them, I wonder if that will make poetry more popular. Time will tell, I suppose.

I hadn't heard that one before. I like that! Yes, quite similar in feeling to Bashō's poem.

Great post! I haven't been active in your community, but this sure makes me want to be.
I love that you research. I would never have recognized the firefly poem as a joke, but rearranged, I can easily see it. I love haiku, both reading and writing. Just posted a poem today, a freewrite, and wish I had used blockchain poets because I see it would easily satisfy this week's prompt.

Glad you enjoyed. Thanks 😃

Your haiku and their attendant explanatory notes are always a highlight for me.

I'm happy to hear that. Thanks for the comment.

Ah, I didn't even realize the blog was ending. I had so much fun reading this! I never thought there would be such influential stories behind those poems.

Thank you for the kind comment 🙂 I'm glad you enjoyed it so much.

I did enjoy this post. I've never actually read a post so long and enjoyed it so much. I too like writing Haiku but I'm just starting to learn. I believe I learned a thing or two from this post. I wanted to re-blog it but it seems I'm too late. I was in Japan for a while (Okinawa) and I loved being there. I am now retired in the Philippines and can visit Japan (or Korea and other Asian countries) as soon as I can acquire enough money to make it worth the trip. I will be looking for your Haiku's and try to learn from them.
