Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
Welcome at CDHK's Tan Renga Wednesday. First I have to apologize for not publishing. It's still busy with Covid here at work and with the "cleaning out" of my Mom's home, so I hadn't time to publish ... ofcourse that makes me sad, but ... well I can't help it.
I promised back in July that I would publish our Tan Renga Wednesday as an extra feature, so today I have a wonderful haiku for you to work with. The goal is to add the 2nd stanza of the Tan Renga that has two lines of approx. 7-7 syllabes.
At the moment we have a heat wave here in The Netherlands with temperatures rising to 35 degrees Celsius and a very moist air, so it's really hot here. So for this Tan Renga Wedensday I have chosen a haiku themed "heat wave". Here is the haiku to work with:
such a hot day
my shadow needs to cool down
under the willow

A wonderful haiku to work with I think. Have fun!

Good to be here again
ReplyDeleteHé, hoi... jaren terug bezocht ik regelmatig jou blog in het kader van "Haiku my heart" (hosted by Rebecca) - weet je nog? Ik schrijf trouwens nog steeds elke week een haiku en post die op vrijdag - de 'kring' bestaat nog steeds al zijn er een stuk minder mensen die nog meedoen... enfin, ik zat dus oude blogposts van mezelf terug te lezen vanmiddag en kwam jouw naam tegen bij de commentaartjes... en nieuwsgierig als ik ben, klikte ik even door om te kijken 'waar je mee bezig bent'... ook nog steeds in de haiku-sfeer dus, wat leuk! De hitte hier werkt inderdaad niet bevorderend (ik woon nu in Zeeland) maar volgende week wordt het beter 'zeggen ze'... heb een fijne dag, groetjes.
