I was unable to post yesterday
due to putting my laptop in the shop
I had written for the prompt
Carpe Diem #621, first light
.
dawn’s first rays
mountain top coast of Maine
smoke from wood stoves
.
From the prompt Solitude:
writing in dunes
loneliness
alone in the house
cold on the tongue
a journey begins
to the door
the length of a shadow
wanting to sleep

Today our second haiku by Yosa Buson. Buson
Buson had the honor to illustrate the first paper publication
In an earlier post at CDHK we had haiku about ”melon-flowers”
and the haiku by Buson which I love to share here is also on ”melons”.

.
adabana wa ame ni utarete uri batake
.
fruitless blossoms
are beaten by the rain
in the melon fields
.
© Buson (Tr. by Thomas McAuley)

A beautiful haiku I think …
well I hope it will inspire you to write haiku.
Here is my attempt to write a haiku in the spirit of Buson.
.
every where I look
the yellow flowers of melons
after a sunny day

My response to the prompt:

cantaloupe blossom
.
long dry summer days and nights
.
thirsty for rain
