Carpe Diem #1485 creating memories


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

I hope you all have had a wonderful weekend. I had to work and that wasn't easy because of the heat, but well .... we finally had some showers of rain and temperatures have become more acceptable for the Dutch, say around 25 degrees Celsius. We still have a wonderful warm summer and this is one of the summers we will never forget.

Well this wonderful Imagination Without Limits is almost over, today we have our penultimate episode. After this month we will go on a journey around the world and discover various pieces of folkmusic like fado and tarantelle. But that's for later ...

I have found a very nice photo for you to work with, it's a photo I took a few years ago somewhere in my hometown. It's in the neighborhood of my mom, that's also the neighborhood were I grew up a teenager.

I have only nice memories of this neighborhood and I cherish them with whole my heart. My youngest daughter, her friend and my youngest grandson are now living in that neighborhood too. It's a photo I took while walking with my grandson to my mother, his great grandmother.

Well ... what do you think ... this haiku / senryu is really awesome (how immodest) ...

This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until August 5th at noon (CEST). I will try to publish our new episode, the last one of July, later on.

By the way ... I am a little bit behind with commenting, but I hope to catch up a.s.a.p.
