Thank you for viewing. This is a collection of haiku poems titled "Azumino" by the haiku poet Shunjō Karasawa, first published by Kadokawa Gakugei Publishing in January 2015. #ShunjoKarasawa #YasuhiroNakasone #Haiku #CollectionOfPoems #HouseOfRepresentativesMember #Politician #Literature Shunjo Karasawa is the haiku pseudonym of Shunjiro Karasawa, a former member of the House of Representatives who served as Minister of Posts and Telecommunications and Chairman of the General Affairs Committee of the Liberal Democratic Party. He served as Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary in the Nakasone Cabinet. He became a member of Hototogisu in 2004. In the latter half, a prose piece, "Politicians' Haiku (Loach and Many Trees)," is included. I found it very interesting to read. Four hundred years reflected in the castle keep, the water warms. It sings of the wonderful harmony of nature and culture. As a politician, he looks at history with a broad perspective and embraces it. - Yasuhiro Nakasone - [Selected by Yasuhiro Nakasone] Two people meet, smoking cigarettes, in the spring rain. After viewing the cherry blossoms, the sound of the stream returns. Waiting for the Emperor's attendance, the Emperor's birthday. A Noh performance with firewood in an ancient castle overlooking the Alps. A summer hat rests on a tired face. The vastness of the rice paddies reflecting the Alps. Open all the windows, the autumn wind of this year. The authentic Kiso Bushi song resonates in the Bon festival valley. Peeling chestnuts, with the face of a Jomon person. Leaves of hair, singing the school song, and disbanding. Retiring and gazing far away, the December days. Though I hear a voice, the entrance is far from the kotatsu. There are no noticeable stains or scratches, but there may be some minor scratches and damage due to storage and aging, as well as sun damage and discoloration.
