Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
Welcome at a new episode of Carpe Diem. This month its all about the power of words ... every prompt is a quote by a known or unknown human. Today I have chosen to inspire you through a quote by my master, Matsuo Basho. And in a way it's also a tribute to Jane Reichhold, because here at CDHK I had the privilege to use her "complete haiku by Basho" several times.
[...] "The temple bell stops but I still hear the sound coming out of the flowers." [...] Matsuo Basho
This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until August 13th at noon (CET). Have fun!
Share your haiku or tanka inspired on the quote by Basho with us all here at our Haiku Kai.
