Every day visits*
From Moose, Goose, and Orb Weaver
All seized by Haiku


"Why moose and goose?" you may ask. Back on 2/04/13 Pirate wrote a haiku with an elk in it, and I responded with
one with a moose and then included him every day. A few days later in comments Mystic asked "Where's the goose?"
So I started including her with this post on 2/07. A week later on the 14th, Mark Readfern
asked for and received a spider. The rest is history.

*Well, most days, anyway. Grant me a bit of poetic license.

Carpe Diem #1259 Creating Beauty

Here I am, back at Carpe Diem Haiku Kai after another long and inexplicable hiatus.

Can I create some beauty?   You be the judge.





ancient myth of god
from the wet clay of the earth
creating adam

~:~

if i place my life
in the mold of your strong hands
how will you form me

~:~

rotund symmetry
in the spinning universe
a cluster of stars

That last one might be a haiku.

The others seem more like senryu.

Namaste.

  1. Awesome to see you again Jazzbumpa it has been for sure a long time, but I am glad to read your haiku for CDHK. Thess three are beautiful. By the way I think they are all haikj, just because I think that senryu and haiku are alike.
    But I have to say your third haiku is my favorite.
    I hope to see you again ...
