Carpe Diem Tan Renga Challenge Month May 24th: "ancient walls" by Janice 'Petra Domina' Adcock


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

Tan Renga Challenge Month ... what a joy to make this month and what a wonderful completions I have read. I am a real fan of Tan Renga and I always try to create them in the best possible way, but of course my ideas are sometimes stranger than others ... That's however the beauty of being human. We are all unique in our own way and that makes Carpe Diem Haiku Kai a great family.

Speaking about our CDHK family ... today I have a nice "hokku" created by Janice 'Petra Domina' Adcock. Janice is already several years part of our CDHK family and she is a very gifted poetess.

Here is Janice's "hokku" for todays Tan Renga:

ancient walls
covered in parables
speak to those who see

Janice wrote this haiku in response on our first episode of the Latifa Prayer with it came a beautiful photo made by Janice too. (See that photo HERE)

It was a joy to create this episode and I hope I have inspired you to complete the Tan Renga with your unique creativity ...

This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until May 29th at noon (CET). I will publish our new "hokku" on our Twitter account.
