flight of the eagle
stepping into the world of dreams –
a silent cry
lifts despondent traveller
airborne, insight deepens

With the horrible conditions on most airlines these days, being airborne makes me despondent. I’m happiest when I reach my destination! 😉
Tan Renga Shadows
I don’t like flying in aeroplanes either. I get nauseous. But flying with an eagle in dreamtime is a different thing.
Wonderful… really great to see you here
I’ve had Carpe Diem bookmarked for some time. It takes me a while to ‘try my luck’. Your prolific writing is an inspiration.
Welcome at Carpe Diem Petra … I like the way how you have completed the Tan Renga which was started by me. By the way I am your host at Carpe Diem Haiku Kai.
Kristjaan, I’ve had Carpe Diem bookmarked for a while but haven’t had the courage to join. Yesterday, I just closed my eyes and jumped in. I think I was supposed to have indicated within the text your name to your haiku and which bit was mine. I did tag your name though. I’ll be more clear with the next one. Thanks for hosting this. It is a wonderful way to exercise a newfound skill and get the feedback. It’s difficult working in a vacuum.
It’s really my pleasure to host Carpe Diem and promote the Japanese poetry-art and I hope to encourage my visitors old and new. So I hope that I have encouraged you to be part of our Carpe Diem community.
‘See’ you soon!
Good to know that … feel welcome in our warm haiku-family.
