Stones
spring
when dancing flowers bud
among stones

etched in stone
words sparkle with the spring
her last wish
3
much beauty
‘Neath the ugliest stone
If we look

Done for Carpe Diem.
CDHK features a wonderful haiku poet from , Ghana, Adjei Agyei Baah, co-founder of the Poetry Foundation Ghana. Adjei Baah has “invented” the (as he calls it) Afriku, the haiku from Africa. You can read more about the Afriku here. Below are his “stones”-haiku/afriku which he would like to share at CDHK and upon which we are to base our inspiration: I’m pleased to announce that Adjei Agyei Baah will be appearing here as a Guest soon. Be on the lookout for the interview. 🙂

needle-like structures
in tune with azure snow skies
silent communion
of ageless monoliths in
eternal mystic homage
