Red Leaf Falls – Tan Renga Poets

 

At Carpe Diem Haiku Kai, my Haiku  “Red Leaf Falls”  was chosen for the Tan Renga Challenge for September 26th.   A Tan Renga is written by two (2) poets; first poet creating the 5-7-5, and the second poet completing the Tan Renga by adding the last part of 7-7.

Nature sleeps
Carpet of silent snow
Red leaf falls

I enjoyed reading each variation … I hope you enjoy the poet’s creative completions of turning my Haiku into a Tan Renga:

nature sleeps
carpet of silent snow
red leaf falls
in the middle of the night
bad dreams torturing me

carpet of silent snow
red leaf falls
lone silhouette disappears
between bare trees only footprints

Red Leaf Falls (3)

nature sleeps
carpet of silent snow
red leaf falls
autumn’s finale bouquet
on winter’s white stage

nature sleeps
carpet of silent snow
red leaf falls
into a brook slowly
running out of babble

red leaf falls
chasing shadows in the park
squirrel stops to pose

chasing shadows in the park
squirrel stops to pose

nature sleeps
carpet of silent snow
red leaf falls
eve in the dead of winter
– a splash of color

carpet of silent snow
red leaf falls
children in from the cold
cider not ready
