Carpe Diem #1277 Sacred Sanctuary (by Peter Crowley)

Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

Sorry for the delay it escaped at my attention, so here it is our new episode for this month's celebration. Today I have a nice musical composition for your inspiration. It's by Peter Crowley, an awesome composer and I love his music. His style is somewhat out of the ordinary, because he uses a lot of different kinds of music.

Peter Crowley calls this kind of music "epic Asian adventure music" so it has a nice connection with our beautiful Japanese poetry. So ... enjoy the music and I hope it will bring you the inspiration you need.

Carpe Diem Extra August 7th 2017 sneak preview October 2017

Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

As you (maybe know) next October we will celebrate our 5th anniversary and I hope to create a wonderful month a real festive month of course. So I love to give you all an update on the preparations of this anniversary month.
I started this haiku community back in October 2012 and I enjoyed the challenge. First I thought maybe a few months, maybe a year, but I never could have dreamed that CDHK would be alive and kicking five years after the start.

Today I was on a memory tour and read several of the posts I wrote in the past years and I ran into wonderful posts which are ripe to be reproduced another time. So our festive month will be a trip along memory lane and of course a few other surprises.

Namasté,

Chèvrefeuille, your host

Carpe Diem Extra - February 17th 2017 Survey Five Years of Carpe Diem Haiku Kai

Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

As I told you in one of the earlier posts this week I have created a survey to get some insight in what is happening on CDHK and to get an impression of my visitors, our warmhearted community of haiku poets.

This Survey you can find HERE

I appreciate your participation in this survey. It will help me to make Carpe Diem Haiku Kai even better than it already is ... and I hope to get some input from you my dear Haijin, visitors and travelers.

Namasté,

Chèvrefeuille, your host

PS. Question 9 is about the special features you can choose more than one answer. I had forgotten to tell that in this survey.
