Haiku: Nap
Nap
1
office nap
the timely intervention
of a mosquito
2
coming out
of a curtailed dream
office nap
3
finding comfort
in long a prayer–
church nap

Haiku: Lily
Penned for Carpe Diem
Lily
1
first
rays
the
desire to draw all there is
in
your buds
2
lilies-of-the-valley
stuck
to the mountainside
like
ribbons
3
water lily–
wish our night ends
in thy bosom

Carpe Diem Challenge: “Ah!
Those Cherry Blossoms
Penned for Carpe Diem.
Today’s episode of
Tokubetsudesu is to write a soliloquy no renga, where a poet creates a tread of
haiku (not exceeding six) on a specified theme or hokku and then ends it by wrapping
it pu in a full circle to the hokku. Please visit Carpe Diem for details.
Hokku
Ah! those cherry blossoms
their beauty amazes me again –
finally spring is here

2
visitors bask in fragrance
of white confetti showers
3
birds chirp in frenzy
as hearty chat fills benches
Cupid’s arrow flies by
4
busy
hands penning haiku
as
cameras seize the moment
5
the
leaden skies add
background to the artist’s pen
no
need for abstract
6
ah! cherry blossoming
blast–
come take a white carpet walk!
