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

A sad broken feeling that you have conveyed masterfully
Thank you Leslie.
Happy Valentine’s Day, my friend!!! Love, Amy
Amy, thanks so much. Hope your Val’s Day was a lovely one.
and there are indeed poppies at Troy, I’ve seen them!
Like seriously? You’ve been to Troy? 🙂
Yes of course, although the post doesn’t show the ruined city!https://lucidgypsy.wordpress.com/2014/01/26/the-trojan-horse/
It’s like the opening lines of a thriller! Good job Celestine. 🙂
Sandra, thank you. 🙂
This is filled with vision. Good work. 🙂
Thank you Alice. I was trying to play around with the Greek Mythology on Helen of Troy. Wasn’t sure it came out well for visitors to get it.
Yup. It came out fine. 🙂
Thanks. I’m glad!
🙂
Sounds like something from a horror movie. Quite gruesome. I hope Helen’s tears dry up soon. There is always a silver lining behind the clouds.
Yep gruesome words. But all battles are gruesome. 🙂
This reminded me of the movie TROY. Well done 🙂
Thank you 🙂
I will always think of blood when I see poppies 😦
Somehow poppies always remind me of blood!
