Merci Chèvrefeuille (tanka – haiku)
I am trying to keep the mood of our host and mentor for already, almost three years of hosting haiku memes. Rather than translate word for word, I have written both a French and English interpretation of his haiku:
haiku poets
write about transience … a short moment
lasting in time

haiku poets
come together in passing – still,
virtual and real
poètes de haïku
rendez-vous précaire – encore,
virtuel et vrai

And this is my thanks to our mentor, Chèvrefeuille, who shares his passion and thoughtfully teaches us more than words, daily.
haiku lover
shares his passion, teaching
patiently
one moment comes to life

Carpe Diem Haiku Kai – Time Machine
I chose this video of More Than Words (one of my most favourite songs) with the original Extreme in front of a live audience. I think this shows our “coming together” at Carpe Diem as a family. Merci Kristjaan pour ton dévouement . Cheryl-Lynn
dew frost (haiku)
Chèvrefeuille writes two beautiful haiku inspired by dew frost .
early morning walk
through the park that looks so fragile –
sunrise and dew frost
cobweb sparkles
prince winter has made his round
through the city-park
© Chèvrefeuille
Here is my inspiration on dew frost
rosée lumineuse
dentelle à l’aube, papillonne
soupçon de l’hiver
glistening dewdrops
quivering web of dawn
hint of winter

Waiting (troiku)
waiting
window gazing she knows
I’m here for the night
waiting
sleeps in her five beds
knowing I`ll come home
window gazing she knows
twenty-four buses pass
then I waltz in
I’m here for the night
never a doubt that I am
her night companion

021 doh – September 30 days of Haiga – Rich Daddario-peacefulness
*My son took my grandson fishing for the first time last weekend and took this photo with his first catch of the day…no! in his life!! (smiles)
autumn sky (troiku – haiga)
autumn sky
rush of tints, blush –
infuse me
autumn sky
vibrant, so blue
shy of clouds
rush of tints, blush –
ambers and hennas
evocative
infuse me
my last reward – before,
stillness takes over

after the storm (haiku – troiku)
(haiku)
looks in the mirror
puffy eyes and mouth,
after the storm
after the storm
a thousand “I’m sorry’s”
sounds of white noise
(troiku)
in the looking glass
shades of black and blue
after the storm
in the looking glass
stranger stares back
void of life
shades of black and blue
dreams of rainbow colours
pretends life is fine
after the storm
a hundred and one promises
until the next

wind blown seeds
in a haphazard way
reaped a miracle
most gardens thrive,
through laboured hours and love,
sunflower necks stretch
most of city life
immune from noxious air
September blossoms boast
