Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
I am late with this Tan Renga Challenge episode, sorry, I am in the nightshift, so I hadn't time to post it earlier. I am also a bit behind with commenting on all your wonderful posts ... so don't be sad if I haven't commented yet on your posts. I hope to catch up.
Today our Tan Renga Challenge is started by a haiku written by Atreyee of Brew me a cuppa. It's her response on our prompt Buddha, of last October. I think it's a great haiku and I hope it will inspire to write a second stanza. Have fun and be inspired. Here is the haiku for starters by Atreyee:
the Soul
drenched in love
seeks nothing- gives everything
finds Buddha within
(c) Atreyeeseeks nothing- gives everything
finds Buddha within
A really nice haiku.
And this is my attempt to complete this Tan Renga:
the soul
drenched in love
seeks nothing- gives everything
finds Buddha within (Atreyee)
seeks nothing- gives everything
finds Buddha within (Atreyee)
walking the labyrinth of the spirit
in deep silence - I find my path (Chèvrefeuille)
A nice completion I think, it's very much in touch with the haiku by Atreyee, but also very much in touch with my own spirituality.

your completion to Atreyee's haiku, speaks to my own spirit because silence is something for which I labor in my own spiritual life.
