haiku
By the way, do you know haiku?
It is very short poem in Japan.
It has only three lines.
In Japanese the lines have five, seven and five syllables.
But only in those lines, people can understand the poet's feeling.
Here is a famous haiku:
Furu-ike ya(古池や)
kazazu tobikomu(蛙飛び込む)
mizu no oto(水の音)
The old pond
a frog jumps in
the sound of water.
You might think "so what is that? or what does it mean?" after reading it.
Haiku has no logic, or no subject and conclusion.
It has just only feeling. That's all.
I can feel it but it is hard for me to explain what it intends...
In the past there was no camera,
and brush and color for painting might be so expensive,
so people clipped and painted the daily scenery by language, not by brush and color.
It is like photography or art.

Beautiful SILO shot I love the clouds in this one!
i agree!
The shot of the sun behind the clouds is a good one.
I read your explanation of Japan's Haiku and remember it from when I was there in the early 1950s. I also thought there is Haiku with 3-5-3 and even one other with a 7 in it but I forget as it was more than half a century ago.
