Tan Renga: morning sun

Posted on Categories Poetry

September is Tan Renga month at Carpe Diem Haiku Kai. The first haiku we engage with is by Jane Reichhold.

morning sun

the twinkle of stars

still in the dew (Jane Reichhold)

elixir of a cool night

anointing the brow of day (my response)

My name is Janice.  I started blogging as Ontheland when I moved from Toronto to a rural area near Kingston, Ontario in Canada.  Over time I have found myself writing poetry, mostly in Japanese forms, such as haiku and haibun.  One of my deepest interests is the natural world: the joy of it and how we can look after it better.

    Just lovely.
    I am not usually an early riser.. but I did get to see the fingernail moon starting to set at 6:30 am.

    You also made me think of an arched brow in surprise 🙂
