Done for Carpe Diem. We are to complete Suzanne’s haiku below with our own lines of 7-7 syllables each.

(Suzanne’s)

red poppies of Troy
the blood of the fallen
bright on the grass 

Mine

mixed with the tears of Helen

fitting dish served by the gods

Tan Renga

red poppies of Troy

the blood of the fallen

bright on the grass

mixed with Helen’s golden tears

fitting dish served to Paris
