between dusty cars
an orange butterfly flits
the traffic rumbles
©️2018 Kim M. Russell
losing time in a standstill
dreaming of wings shifting fate
(my response)

In this Carpe Diem Tan Renga episode the featured haiku is a contemporary one written by Kim Russell of Writing in North Norfolk (see link above). I was thrilled just a couple of days ago—when sitting on a four-lane highway in a traffic jam a Monarch butterfly brushed against my window. I immediately thought of Kim’s haiku.
