“Kokin Wakashu (circa 905) by Various: Emperor Uda and his scion and successor, Emperor Daigo,
ordered this collection of royal waka to celebrate Japan’s rich creative heritage. Spanning 21 collections
and roughly 1,111 poems, it was compiled by court poets Mibu no Tadamine, Ki no Tsurayuki, Ki no
Tomonori and Oshikochi Mitsune and included works by Ono no Komachi, Ariwara no Narihira and
Fujiwara no Okikaze Henjo as well as the editors themselves.”- story

Both of the pieces being so different have a similar

style of talking about ‘Life’. The both hint at the word
and they both talk about it. In the poem it says,
“Perfuming the wings of a Butterfly” this little
collection of words has life in it and can say a lot. The
story shows life too. The story says” Life itself is
precious”. This one is easier to spot because it states it
clearly. They both state the same things but in
different ways. They are the same but different.
