Tan Renga Challenge

Carpe Diem

from a treetop
emptiness dropped down
in a cicada shell
Basho

falling  onto her lap
startling her lover


Kukai Winner May 2015

Winning Haiku


wisteria
fragrant chandeliers drop
a carpet of purple

  1. Congratulations in pulling first place in the kukai challenge - the judges were the best in the business I think, meaning a fully-merited 1st.
    Your renga here shows the difference again - not overblown, soft, warm

  5. Thank you. It was entirely unexpected. The fact that the entrants were anonymous, just numbers on a page, may have something to do with it. As you may or may not know, having been banned from four poetry sites ( for reasons unspecified) I am not the most popular poet in the cybersphere LOL

  7. Dverse, Poets Pantry / Poets United, Poetry Jam and The Sunday Whirl

    Well all of these sites have a few things in common which may be more of a contributing factor rather than anything I write:) Of course as a result I write more than I ever did before.:)
