Lips Too Chilled by Matsuo Bashō

hopeful inspiring lighthearted fast-paced

I'm no way able to comment on any sort of poetry, but I loved how Basho sensei wrote his haikus.

It was eloquent, beautiful, daunting and at the same time just very heartwarming. It brings you a sense of melancholy whilst comforting a dark heart.

I picked up this short haiku collections on a day that I felt just very shitty and in some sense it comforted me.

I kind of understood what Basho wanted to portray, in his sense of fluidity in including elements of nature into his haiku. Great for a light reading!
