Carpe Diem #718, Misty showers
through water stained glass
all creation seems misty
showers long past

The haiku for today comes also from "The Records of a Weather-Exposed Skeleton" (Nozarashi Kiko). I think this haiku is a nice one and it shows us that Basho his writing skills were growing. In this haiku I sense a kind of emotion which I would say is somewhat melancholically. It gives me a feeling of sadness ... and I even sense tears ....
Here is the haiku Misty showers (with preface):
It rained the day I passed through the barrier, and all the mountains were hidden in the clouds.
misty showers
the day one cannot see Mount Fuji
it is more attractive

Basho wrote several haiku about Mount Fuji I have found another nice one:
The wind from Mt. Fuji
I put it on the fan.
Here, a souvenir from Edo
