Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
I will take a few days of, but of course I will not leave you without your daily dose of CDHK. I have created the last few episodes of this month and the first of December already and scheduled them for the right time of publishing. I have a very busy week to come and I just had to make a choice to were my priority is. This week that's at my work, so ...
Yesterday I gave you a short episode and the upcoming episodes will be short too. Only the quatrains and my own thoughts about them.
So here is our new episode titled "Scheme of Things":
Ah Love ! could thou and I with Fate conspire
To grasp this sorry Scheme of Things entire,
Would not we shatter it to bits - and then
Re-mould it nearer to the Heart's Desire !
© Omar Khayyam (Tr. FitzGerald)
A wonderful expression of how most of us feel!

your heart beats
with mine

This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until December 5th at noon (CET). I will publish (scheduled) our next episode later on. Have fun!
Share your Japanese poetry inspired on this verse by Omar Khayyam with us all here at our Haiku Kai.
