Written for: Carpe Diem Tan Renga Challenge September 2018 Chained Together III (7) grasses wilt
Here is the haiku to work with:
grasses wilt:
the braking locomotive
grinds to a halt. ©️ Yamaguchi Seishi, (Tr. Michael R. Burch)
tired of onslaught of people
locomotive lulls on tracks ©️ Sara McNulty
As I read this haiku by Seishi I immediately thought of that nice haiku by Shiki:
smoke whirls
after the passage of a train.
young foliage. © Shiki
pushes new leaves to clean air
more blooms to start Spring ©️ Sara McNulty
