Carpe Diem Tan Renga Challenge Month 2017 #9 leaves float away (Dolores Fegan)


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

Last Thursday we had a nice "hokku" to work with written by a classical haiku poet so today I have a "hokku" written by a modern haiku poetess. I think you all will know her, because she is an active participant at CDHK, Dolores Fegan. (At the right side of our Kai you can find her e-book "First Magnolia Bloom", for sure worth to read.

The "hokku" of today is the following, a "magical" haiku of autumn:

autumn evening
like whispered prayers
leaves float away

Isn't it a wonderful "hokku" to work with? Here is my attempt to create a Tan Renga with it through adding my 2nd stanza.

Awesome ...
