Dear
haijin, visitors and travelers,
I decided to publish one "Full Circle" episode here at our Carpe Diem Haiku Kai to introduce it to you all.
Today our third
episode of ''Full Circle'', a special
feature at our Carpe Diem Haiku Kai Special weblog, and the goal is to write haiku with the twelve
(12) words I will give. It's a kind of word-whirl and you have to use the words
given in the clock-wise direction. So every word has to come in the line of
it's place on the clock e.g. mirror you have to use for line one (1) and leaves for line two (2) and so on.
I will give
you twelve (12) words (for every ''hour'') one word. The goal is to write haiku
using the words as given in the clock wise way.
Here are
the 12 (twelve) words for this new episode:
1.
mirror
2. leaves
3. rain
4. butterfly
5. chrysanthemum
6. breeze
7. stars
8. clouds
9. ocean
10. daisies
11. cow shed
12. secret
If you
follow the words clock wise than you can compose four new haiku. This feature is just for fun and I hope you will as much enjoy it as I did have fun
and joy to create it.

a gleam in the mirror
of colored leaves falling -
the sound of rain
