I am fairly certain the poem in last week's Shogun takes from a poem by Spike Milligan: https://www.trickjarrett.com/2024-04-13.html#658ddec4

The sound of rain on the leaves can be heard.
Still more fragile is the dew of tears on my sleeves even in springtime.
Waiting, the pine tree never withers in winter.
If I could use words like scattering flowers and falling leaves
what a bonfire my poems would make
