This monument was placed to commemorate the achievements of Kamo Suehaka, a poet active in the late Edo period, and to pass on his waka poems to future generations. Kamo Suehaka was born in 1751 and died in 1824. He is known as a poet who served Kamigamo Shrine in Kyoto. He learned waka poetry from Prince Shonin Arisugawa and established a place called “Un-nishiki-tei” where he held poetry gatherings and interacted extensively with literary figures and poets. Later, he went to Edo to deepen his friendship with Kato Chikage and others, and left a significant mark as a cultural figure of the time. The waka poem inscribed on the monument reads, “Asanagi no sue kase no sekase, sei no yume mo utachi nunu uwasu, kane no oto kara” (The sound of the bell may be the dream of the world). The poem describes how life's dreams and worries fleetingly fade away through the wind blowing on a quiet morning, and the scene depicts the sound of a bell echoing to symbolize this fragility. This poem, which skillfully incorporates natural scenes and expresses the transience and impermanence of life, shows the poetic sensitivity and deep thought of Kamo Kietaka. This monument, located on the approach to Onsenji Temple in Kinosaki Onsen, provides visitors with an opportunity to learn about the world of Kietaka's waka poems and to experience his spirit.
