Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
It is Wednesday again and as you know Wednesday is Tokubetsudesu day here at Carpe Diem Haiku Kai. In the Tokubetsudesu episodes this month I will "revisit" several special features which I created for Carpe Diem, so we are going "back in time".
Back in summer 2014 I introduced a special feature titled "Let The Music Inspire You" and as the title already says ... the goal is to create a haiku, tanka or other Japanese poetry form inspired on a piece of music.

The above video is the singer/instrumentalist/pianist Yanni with Felitsa (a song he wrote for his mom) and the created video is by Paky.D
I hope you do like this wonderful piece of music. And ... I hope it will inspire you to create a haiku, tanka or other Japanese poetry form.
This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until August 7th at noon (CET). I will try to post our next episode, a new quote to inspire you, later on.
Share your haiku, tanka or other Japanese poetry form inspired on this beautiful piece of music with us all here at our Haiku Kai. Feel free to invite other haiku poets to participate.
