Carpe Diem #57, first snow


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

I am a little bit sad, because today is our last day of our Carpe Diem November. It was really a joy to make these every day posts for you. I am a lucky man ... you're all great and I will thank you all for your every day posts and participation. It makes me humble ...
I am glad to be your host for Carpe Diem.

Today our prompt is first snow and it's of course the 'ouverture' to our next month of Carpe Diem ... December the month of winter.


covered with snow
on the first day of winter
Buddha's statue

first snow has fallen
prints of bare feet to the fence -
sweeping the path

Well ... this was my last haiku for Carpe Diem November. I will prepare our first prompts for December. December will be a wonderful Carpe Diem month and a tough month I think. The prompts for December are all classical kigo or seasonwords. To me those classical seasonwords are all a bit familiar, but it will also be tough for me.

For Carpe Diem December I have created a new logo:

This prompt will stay on 'till December 1st 11.59 AM (CET) and I will post our first Carpe Diem prompt for December 'Indian Summer (koharu)' later on today around 10.00 PM (CET).

Have fun, be inspired, be creative and share your haiku with Carpe Diem.
