    I am finding this one hard to place myself in. Are the villages really that close that you can hear roosters crowing from them? It would seem more realistic to me to say "house to house" or "street to street"?

  5. Alan Summers Says:

    I understand what you say, but some villages can be that close, plus if low sound pollution from human appliances, they can really carry. Honest. ;-)

    Each village–no matter how many and how far separated–experience the crow of their own rooster … a universal image of early rising. A very nice haiku.
