Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
As promised ... we will countdown to Christmas from today on. In my opinion Christmas starts with Christmas Eve, so that's why this special feature starts today. In the upcoming days we will "grow" to Christmas with each other by special prompts which are in a way connected to Christmas as for example "fresh snow" as is the prompt for this episode of "Seven Days Before Christmas".
You can share all kinds of Japanese poetry forms for this special feature, but please try to stay to the scene of the prompt.
Here is my haiku for this first episode of CD Seven Days Before Christmas:
fresh
fallen snow
creaks beneath my feet -
full snow moon walk
creaks beneath my feet -
full snow moon walk
full snow
moon walk
through my neighborhood
while snow is falling
through my neighborhood
while snow is falling
that night
I will never forget
full snow moon walk
I will never forget
full snow moon walk
