Last night after closing the shutters I was bending down to cuddle Haiku kun and talk to him, when this grasshopper really took a good hit!
And it was not even roasted, as they are sometimes eaten here in Japan as a special delicacy!
batta, grasshopper/locust [large grasshoppers, often with a more brown than green appearance, family Acrididae (short-horned)] is a kigo for all autumn.

Gabi,
Put simply, nothing like it!
Y.
Wonderful, Gabi...
I can smell and taste...
lots of things, sun, bread, the open air....
D.
Yes Gabi san,
Thank you for invoking the smell and taste of fresh bread together. There are a very few Haiku that invoke the taste sense if I am right.

Gabi, this is so funny!
But I would not want to experience it!

Swallow ...
Oh Gabi,
that's a hoot!
Wonderful work, Sakuo --
this is a classic!
:~)
Lunchtime :
Poignant haiku, Gabi.
It is Buson-esque in its simplicity and descriptiveness, yet says much more.
