Carpe Diem #1603 Tan Renga Challenge Month 2019 (7) phoenix

Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

First I have to apologise to you for bein glate with publishing our new regular episode. My excuses for being late, but that said ... time to go on with a new Tan Renga Challenge, because that's what we are doing this whole month ... Tan Renga Challenges.

I hope you all have had a wonderful weekend and that your weekend was one of inspiration and joy. Today I have chosen a wonderful haiku to work with created by one of our family members. I haven't ask her yet, but I think she will not have a problem with using her haiku here at our wonderful Kai. I have chosen a haiku created by Dolores of Ada's Poetry Alcove. She wrote this haiku in response on the "rebirth" of our Time Glass feature last week.

rebirth
tendrils of love spread
through poetry

A wonderful haiku to work with I think, I hadn't inspiration to create the 2nd stanza to this Tan Renga, but I love to share a haiku from my archives:

phoenix spreads its wings
after the dark cold winter night
finally spring

This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until February 17th at noon (CET). I will try to publish our new episode later on. For now ... be inspired!
