Carpe Diem #1514 Exile (Tan Renga Challenge)


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

I am happy to prepare another CDHK episode for you all. Today I have chosen Exile as our theme to work with. As I started preparing this episode the first thing which came in mind was the Exodus of the Jewish people from Egypt lead by Moses, but it also brought a pop group in mind with the name Exile and that pop group made a wonderful song back in 1974 here it is:




I remember that I was completely mad with this song ...

gone in exile
without the one who kissed me all over -

gone in exile
to become free again
the people of God

Pick one of the two given haiku and add your 2nd stanza to make a Tan Renga or you can take both haiku to create a "fusion"-haiku as we do in our "crossroads" feature. Well ... feel free to make your choice and be creative ... awaken your muse!

This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until October 10th at noon (CEST). I will try to publish our new episode later on.
