Trees lost in haze -
a glint far off
becomes a heron

Shuson Kato was, together with Ishida Hakyo and Nakamura Kusatao, a member of the “Human Exploration School”, identified in the popular mind as poets who explored ‘how human beings should live’.

Initially Kato despised haiku and was more interested in the 31-syllable tanka. However, while working in a high school he met a famous haiku poet, Shuoshi Mizuhara, who became his lifelong teacher.
