Carpe Diem Challenge: “Ah! Those Cherry Blossoms

Penned for Carpe Diem. 

Today’s episode of Tokubetsudesu is to write a soliloquy no renga, where a poet creates a tread of haiku (not exceeding six) on a specified theme or hokku and then ends it by wrapping it pu in a full circle to the hokku.  Please visit Carpe Diem for details.

Hokku

Ah! those cherry blossoms

their beauty amazes me again –

finally spring is here

visitors bask in fragrance

of white confetti showers

3

 birds chirp in frenzy

as hearty chat fills benches

Cupid’s arrow flies by

4

busy hands penning haiku

as cameras seize the moment

5

the leaden skies add

  background to the artist’s pen

no need for abstract

6

 ah! cherry blossoming blast–

come take a white carpet walk!
