Carpe Diem Tan Renga Challenge #78, Shoha's "out from the grass"


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

Last week we hadn't a Tan Renga Challenge, but this week of course we will have a new Tan Renga Challenge. This week I have chosen a haiku by one of the classical haiku masters/ -poets. I hope this haiku by Shoha (1727-1772) will be the source of inspiration for this TRC episode.
In the TRC the goal is to complete the Tan Renga by putting a second (two lined) stanza towards the first stanza through association ...

at the wagon's approach,
out from the grass
flies the butterfly

A lot of images to associate on I think. So have fun ....


This Tan Renga Challenge is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until next Friday April 3rd at noon (CET).
