CD: Jane Reichhold's "Winter Solstice"

Carpe Diem Special #49

Our challenge is to write a haiku inspired by one or both of the haiku penned by Jane Reichhold.

winter solstice
warmth of friends
return the sun
(c) Jane Reichhold

deep snow
the horse walks the paths
of summer
(c) Jane Reichhold

My inspired haiku:

chilled to the bone

adding wood to the fireplace

pipe dreams of summer

***

deep in the woods

walking through piles of leaves

scent of winter

 

CD: Jane Reichhold's "Riversong"

Carpe Diem Special #48

 

We are to write a haiku in the same sense as the one penned by Jane Reichhold:

riversong
wind blown from autumn trees
a stream of gold

My inspired haiku:

wisteria vines
last green clinging to autumn

driftwood by springtime

CD: Jane Reichhold's "Sweeping the Porch"

Carpe Diem Special #47

Our challenge is to write a haiku in the same spirit as Jane Reichhold's haiku:

sweeping the porch
bright prints of raindrops 
followed by splashes

My attempt:

dusting his dresser

tracing blurred memories

of life together
