Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
What a joy ... a new episode of our brand new feature "Carpe Diem Romancing Haiku" for you all. As I stated in the first episode of this feature "I think haiku can be a love poem too, as tanka once was meant to be". In our first episode I had chosen the theme "beach" for you. For this episode I have chosen the theme "mountain".
Here at CDHK we have often seen the theme "mountain" so I think it will not a big problem to create love-haiku themed "mountain".
An example by myself:
watching a geisha
monk from high up in the mountains
he's also a man

Or this one, more a love-poem without bringing love up actually, but in the deeper layer this is also a love-haiku:
drinking tea
on the porch of a mountain hut -
the almost full moon

Well ... enjoy this challenge to create a "love-haiku" themed "mountain".
This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until April 29th at noon (CEST). Have fun ...!
Share your love-haiku inspired on the theme "mountain" with us all here at our Haiku Kai.

Having grown up in Colorado, I'm forever "in love" with mountains :)
