Carpe Diem Time Glass #35 weeping willow

Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

It's Sunday and that means time for a new episode of our time challenging feature "Time Glass" in which is the goal to write/compose haiku (or tanka) inspired on a given prompt and photo within 24 hours. "Time Glass" challenges you to be in the moment, as short as the sound of a pebble thrown into water, the essence of haiku.

This week's prompt is "Weeping Willow"

And this is the photo to become in the inspirational mood to write an all new haiku.

Credits: Weeping Willow (and boat)

The above photo shows a place in Giverny (France) this was the place were Monet once lived and started to paint in his so wellknown Impressionistic style.

Well I hope you are inspired to respond within 24 hours with a haiku (or tanka) inspired on the given prompt and photo. Have fun!

This Time Glass episode is open for your submissions tonight at 7.00 PM (CET) and will remain open for only 24 hours until Monday July 13th at 7.00 PM (CET). So you have just 24 hours to respond.

Carpe Diem #697, Weeping Willow

Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

I am a bit late with posting this episode, but here it is ... our new (and last of this month) episode. Next month we will explore the Bhagavad Gita and the wonderful haiku by Kala Ramesh, our featured haiku-poet of April.
This last episode is Weeping Willow and this time I have taken the easy way and have a short episode for you all ... just my haiga for your inspiration and nothing more.

Well ... this is it ... this was our Carpe Diem Haiga Festival. I hope you all did like the extra challenge to make a haiga and become more artistic and creative with images and words.

This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until April 3rd at noon (CET). I will try to post our next episode, a Ghost Writer post, later on.
