tsuka mo ugoke waga naku koe wa aki no kaze
shake! o tomb!
the sound of my wailing
is the wind of autumn
© Basho
Alone, I began
spring my awakening
autumn sings my song

The Carpe Diem Haiku Kai prompt is Grief. What sounds do you hear in grief?

Thank you for visiting Moondustwriter. One of the many exciting things I've had the honor of doing is writing and publishing in multiple genres (including education) in E. African for E. Africa. As a writer, it is a thrill to write for children (on all continents) who want to learn.
I've been part of the blogging community for more than 13 years. Some old timers may remember the award winning (2011 Twitter Shorty ) blog community - One Stop Poetry. I was the co-producer of that fast growing blog community.
I am a published writer, poet, artist and photographer. I have written, as well as edited, for periodicals, radio, blogs and fellow writers.
There are many facets to this moon - my joy is in meeting you!

Thanks Doran. This was not an easy haiku to write because I could not feel the words which I usually do. My head was too full of fantasy – knights and kings.
