Carpe Diem: Back To Basic

Tags

back to basic, Basho, Empty shells, Nature, thunderstoms, waves, wind

Done for Carpe Diem. We are to:

Describe a moment as short as the sound of a pebble thrown into water;
2. use 5-7-5 syllables;
3. Use a kigo (or seasonword);
4. Use a kireji (or cuttingword);
5. Sometimes a deeper spiritual or Zen-Buddhistic meaning;
6. First and third line are interchangeable.

This is a re-work of a haiku from my archives. 🙂

Empty Shells

crushing on billowing waves

tiny empty shells
