Your challenge is to write a haiku or
tanka (or choose one of your previously published works) that has a
connection with the themes/feelings/images of the above quote, without
just restating what has appeared in the text, to create a haibun. Play
around with it and see what you come up with. Enjoy!

Hi Ellen, thanks for joining us with your poetry. :-)

Dear Kirsten, Thank you. I recently received a copy of A New Resonance 8. Looks beautiful! So no need to include me in the book draw, though thank you! I recognized your name and mostly thought I'd say hello. Best wishes, Ellen
DeleteCool! Well thanks for stopping by to say, hello!
DeleteHappy reading of ANR8. :-)

I've been unable to participate for a few. Just wanted to say I love all of these for the 13th - and am enjoying catching up. Such original ideas and phrasing from everyone. Beautiful thoughts.
ReplyDeleteYes, some wonderful work being shared. Thanks to all for continuing to take part!
DeleteAnd the quotes for the prompts are simply wonderful! Some I'd heard before, but most, had not. Am very glad to read new inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThat's great, June. :-)
