!! Open for your submissions next Sunday June 17th at 7:00 PM (CEST) !!
Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
Time flies ... I have said that very often here at CDHK, but it is so true. Time slips through our fingers like grains of sand. I remember that I started writing haiku back in the late eighties and than several years later, 2005, I published my first english haiku. And now ... look were we are now. In 2012 I started CDHK to promote the beauty of haiku and later other Japanese poetry forms like tanka and sedoka. We are "running" towards our 6th anniversary and I hope you all will celebrate that we me next October.
Time ... also a prompt we have seen here often e.g. back in January 2017, while we were on our pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, I made an episode about Time (here) or what do you think of this episode written by our friend Hamish Manaqua Gunn back in February 2016 (here).
Okay ... up we go ... no sentimental journey here (smiles). This weekend meditation I love to challenge you again to create a Troiku with a "fusion"-haiku. And this weekend I love to challenge you to create a "fusion"-haiku with the following haiku themed "time":
perpetual snow
reflects the sunlight -
I dream of a nude beach

through tears
cherry blossoms scattered

I can almost hear you all think ... what have these haiku to do with time? But I think you can relate to the "time"-theme in these haiku.
The goal? Create a "fusion"-haiku from these two haiku and than use your "fusion"-haiku to create a Troiku with (more on Troiku? above in the menu).
Well .... have a great weekend full of inspiration .... awaken your muses and enjoy creating your once in year masterpiece ...
This weekend-meditation is open for your submissions next Sunday June 17th at 7:00 PM (CEST) and will remain open until Sunday June 24th at noon (CEST). Enjoy your weekend!
PS. Do you have ideas for our 6th anniversary in October? Than please let me know.
