Product details

The idea for this piece comes from the structure, moods and feelings in a Japanese Haiku by Matsuo Bashō. Here are three translations:

The autumn full moon

all night long I paced round the lake.

R.H.Blyth

Harvest Moon

around the pond wander

and the night is gone.

Harold G. Henderson

Bright moon

I stroll around the pond

hey, dawn has come!

Lucien Stryk

Much is suggested by the three images in the original text. The endless fascination with the full moon. Its surface. Its impact. The poet's reflection on the moon. The moon's reflection in the pond. The full moon appears, huge and fascinating over the horizon at dusk, and sets just as the sun rises.
