in the tall grass
the start of feathery plumes –
new sign of autumn

the fall of night
bestows upon me well earned
moments of quiet
garden awash in moonlight
fireflies waltz through tall grass

For Colleen’s Tanka Tuesday: synonyms for ‘give & receive’…Bestow & Earn
This is one of my ‘sit down’ spots, night and day.
With all the rain, this baby is 5ft tall…I may have accendentally fed it in the spring…
Why satisfaction? I’m finally finished with making my garden presentable…so now, I’m putting out some cute stuff#!! 🙂

tall grass sways gently
in autumn wind with such grace –
kneels under first snow
now part of a new landscape
holds onto new hopes for spring

sinks behind tall grass

This month on Carpe Diem Haiku we are exploring haiku writing techniques used by Basho. Our host writes:
“….In this haiku Basho uses the so called “sketch”or “shasei” technique….The poetic principle is “to depict the thing just as it is”. There are some inspirations for haiku that are best said as simply as possible. …it should never be the only method employed in a haiku….”
With the sketch technique you’re creating
“… a haiku depicting the thing just as it is…”
