Poem

Take care in the manner you whisk the chasen through the tea
The tines of the ’boo shouldn’t scrape the floor of the bowl violently
                   茶を点てば茶筅に心よくつけて茶碗の底へ強くあたるな
cha o tateba chasen ni kokoro yoku tsukete chawan no soko e tsuyoku ataru na

Poem #93

 

 習ひをばちりあくたぞと思へかし、書物は反古腰張にせよ
