Carpe Diem Tan Renga Challenge Month May 12th: "snowdrift" by Ese


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

Welcome at a new episode of our Tan Renga Challenge Month. Today I have a nice haiku written by one of our CDHK family-members, she was a featured haiku poetess here too.

The "hokku" for this Tan Renga is de following:

deep in snowdrift
I wrap my arms around tree
last dance before spring

In the years behind us Ese was a steady visitor and participant in Carpe Diem and she still is. At the start she published on her WP-weblog and Tumblr, but the last months Ese publish her haiku on Twitter.




The Drifters singing "Save The Last Dance", just to help your inspiration to create the second (two-lined) stanza  for this "hokku".

This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until May 16th at noon (CET). Our new "hokku" for tomorrow's Tan Renga Challenge you can find already on our Twitter account. Have fun!

PS.: The new issue of our e-zine Souchou is Now Available, you can find it at the right  side of our Kai.
