September 16 -  September 22 is the 38th week of 2024.  This week, we are in the meteorological season of fall but remain in astronomical summer until the autumnal equinox on Sunday at 8:43 am. At this time, we are also in the Solar Term of White Dew (Sep 08 - Sept 21) and the micro-seasons of “Wagtails Sing” (Sep 13 - Sep 17) and “Swallows Leave” (Sep 18 - Sep 22). Basho, Issa, Buson, and Reichhold wrote the poems selected for this week.
