Mr. Hikonoshin Kamio and his wife, Unoko

Spring Day in Nishikata Village
Composed by Kamio Shisen
This poem was contributed by the teacher to Nihon no Bunka, Vol. 1, No. 4, published in February 1890.

Would a farmhouse dare sing of boredom?
Everywhere rivers and mountains are rich with spring color.
Mist weaves brocade on the mountain peaks;
The scenery before my eyes is enough for poetry.
