    In poem Lazy Jane the word "rain" hovers just above Jane’s open mouth, as the string of words above it seems to represent the trickle of water she longs for.

  8. The English poet Roger McGough sends readers’ eyes travelling to and fro the way a tennis ball would across a net when they read 40-Love. Indeed, the poem itself – like the “middle aged couple” he writes about – is split by such a ‘net.’

  13. And through the wisps of winter’s crisp
    and frosted burden on these boughs,
    I see the sky a blank pale slate
    to paint with brightly lit displays
    of trees aglow with Yuletide cheer

    (Blank verse for a blank sky)

  14. In my falling heart
    I pluck a wise old green peach —
    Fruit bears fruit inside

    (I couldn’t find green peaches.)

    “Green Peach” (桃青 Tōsē) was a pen name of Matsuo Bashō, the 17th century Edo-period Japanese poet who practically defined the classical haiku.
