Carpe Diem Imagination with Paul Militaru #4 kissing gate

Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

Welcome at a new Carpe Diem Imagination with Paul Militaru, a very gifted photographer and poet. Paul has created wonderful photos and I am glad and grateful that I may use his photos in this festive anniversary month to inspire you.

I have found another beauty and I hope it will inspire you to create haiku, tanka or another Japanese poetry form.

For this episode I have a beautiful photo from the so called "kissing gate" by Brancusi at tg.jiu. Isn't it a wonderful idea to walk through this gate, linger for a moment under it to kiss your beloved one?

Wow ... what a beauty and the name of this gate can certainly inspire you to create a lovely haiku or tanka ... maybe you can try to bring some sensuality and romance into your poem ...

Please if you use the photo in your post credit Paul Militaru.

Another one ...

hot summer night
nude bodies folded together

I was inspired through this photo ...

at sunrise
I awake next to beauty
under the gate
torn apart clothes around us
and used rubbers

Sorry that last one is maybe to much .... but my fantasy was on a roll (smiles)

This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until October 27th at noon (CET). I will try to publish our next episode, embroidery thread, later on.
