crossing the footbridge
a sound that comes unbidden …
my wild beating heart
forest cathedral quiets
as the black puma hisses
______________________________________________
A Tan Renga is a short chained poem and is written by two poets. It looks very similar with the Tanka, the only difference is that Tan Renga is written by two poets and the Tanka by one poet. In this Tan Renga Challenge the goal is to write the second stanza (7-7) of the Tan Renga by associating on the image or the words painted in the haiku.

Were I to hear a hissing puma, I would be, as the Germans say, maeuschenstill (as still as a mouse)!
