Carpe Diem Tan Renga Challenge Month May 20th: "night rolled away" by Gillena Cox


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

First this today I only will publish a new Tan Renga Challenge just because of lack of time, so no worries I am okay.

For today's Tan Renga Challenge I have a nice starting verse "hokku" written by Gillena Cox, she is one of our family members and maybe you have read this haiku somewhere at CDHK.


night rolled away
the street-sweeper's broom
deepening dawn sounds

A nice one I think. 

My excuses for this short episode, but ... well as I said "lack of time". This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until May 24th at noon (CET). Our new "hokku" you can find on Twitter.

Carpe Diem Ghost Writer #14, Creation by Gillena Cox of Lunch Break


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

Another week has gone by and it's time for a new Ghost Writer (GW) post. The following GW-post is by Gillena Cox of Lunch Break and it was scheduled for May 2014, but there were circumstances which made that Gillena could not deliver it at time, so here is here belated GW-post with the prompt ''Creation''.

Creation

When i read the biblical account in the book of Genesis of creation, i am confronted with the aspects of completion, satisfaction, and goodness; how unlike the reality of man's stewardship, in our continuous and ongoing process of doing, crafting and tireless improving; when will we get it right or maybe the question is can we?

all things on earth
become beautiful

browns doves on the lawn
one, then another; do they
ever remain alone

Kristjaan asked for  ghost writers for the month of May and accepted my offer to write, however i must apologise for breaking the schedule and posting this late sharing. The prompt he scheduled for me was CREATION for May 7th.

Creation ... was one of our prompts in our Legends, Myth, Saga and Folktale month and back than our Ghost Writer had to use the given prompt. So that's why Gillena has chosen this inspirational prompt for you all.

This Ghost Writer post will be open for your submissions tonight at 7.00 PM (CET) and will remain open until June 27th at noon (CET). I will try to post our next episode, buttercups, later on.
