Matsuo Basho was one of the world's greatest poets. These are my modern English translations of some of Basho's best haiku...
"...when I encountered the poem the first time, that was the image and sound I heard..."

Sensations of rich scenes and variable time.
Did the mystics contribute to my translations? Could be. In any case, I'm glad you liked them.
