Luscious perfect moons
Cranes drawn to honeyed nectar
Succulent reward.

My response to Carpe Diem #1293 Time Travel, ancient Japanese poetry to inspire you
Chèvrefeuille has chosen an episode of the ‘Time Travel’ feature, a challenge with ancient Japanese poetry. There are a lot of haiku (and tanka) in which several myths and secrets are hidden. For example in a lot of haiku and tanka the poets hide sexuality and the beauty of human body.
So for this episode I love to challenge you to create a haiku or tanka in which you hide sexuality and the beauty of the human body.
Wow … what an awesome woodblock print did you create it yourself? And that haiku … nice.
