Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
Today I have to share a wonderful haiku as the starting verse of our new Tan Renga Challenge. As read this one I was immediately caught by it, maybe it was the haiga, or maybe just the words, but it caught me ... It's a haiku/haiga written/made by Wabi Sabi of ''Wabi Sabi -- poems and images''. I had to use this one for our Tan Renga Challenge. Here it is, the haiga:
Haiga "Old Beacon'' (c) Wabi Sabi |
old beacon
hailing all strangers -
mind the land
(c) WabiSabi
A great response on our prompt Strangers as provided by Patricia in our first anniversary month, last October. I had to think this one over and over again to compose a second stanza to it, but I think I have succeeded.
Here is my attempt to complete this Tan Renga started by WabiSabi:
old beacon
hailing all strangers -
mind the land (WabiSabi)
a soothing thought emerges
the lighthouse through the mist (Chèvrefeuille)
A nice one I think. Now it's up to you my dear Haijin, visitors and travelers to complete this Tan Renga in your own style ... have fun, be inspired and share.
This episode of our Tan Renga Challenge Month will stay on until November22th 11.59 AM (CET) and is open for your submissions today at 7.00 PM (CET).
Love the lighthouse through the mist.. very nice.
ReplyDeleteThat was a lovely addition!
ReplyDeleteIndeed, I bet the lighthouse sight was soothing historically and probably today still despite electronics ~ wonderful completion ~ thanks, carol, xxx
ReplyDeleteThsnk you for completing my three lines with your own unique restful words!
ReplyDeleteNow I'm wondering, did the soothing thought make the lighthouse emerge through the mist or is it the lighthouse through the mist that is soothing? Hmmm
ReplyDeleteI loved the idea of the lighthouse being a soothing thought for the possibly lost sailors:-)Beautiful completion Kristjaan.
