In this poetic form, as in life, there is a pause, a shift, in which the poet celebrates sensory awareness of the season, perhaps suggested by the scent of cherry blossoms or the silence of snow-covered tree limbs. The timeless appeal of this poetry may be the human desire to capture one's impressions of a fleeting moment. Such seasonal allusions emphasise the essence of haiku: nature and its ephemeral beauty. This calendar features haiku paired with exquisite Japanese woodcuts. Each poem is rendered in Japanese calligraphy, Romaji transliteration, and English translation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 324g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 x 305 x 5 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781087511580\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pomegranate","offers":[{"title":"Calendar","offer_id":47734194962682,"sku":"9781087511580","price":5.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1758314446780_book.jpg?v=1758368858","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/haiku-japanese-art-and-poetry-2026-wall-calendar-9781087511580","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
