俳句 365 haiku (250) 《法師蝉2 Kunpūshi》

　

樹を変へて折々鳴くや法師蝉

(ki-o-kaete oriori-naku-ya hōshizemi)

　　　　　　　　　（薫風士）

　

changing trees to stay at,

crying occasionally;

Meimuna opalifera

                             (Lovee)

  　

  (Note)

As to the pronunciation of「き」(ki), there are many homonyms such as「樹」(tree),「機」(opportunity),「器」(vessel),「期」(time),「季」(season),「気」(feeling), etc.

Therefore, I would be pleased if you consider the above haiku as a pun, taking the Meimuna opalifera as a metaphor.
