CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI: The End in Sight




My Haiku
gazing toward the end
yet hope lives eternally
for our homecoming



Our Inspiration from Basho
Translated by Jane Reichhold

to hear the wild goose
is my reason to go
to the capital in autumn

This day marks the end of our journey with Basho.
Thanks to our host Kristjaan for continuing to host this meme.

The stretched out horizon can feel daunting or exciting depending on what mood I'm in. This looks like a stretch of beach where I grew up.

Wonderful response Nonnie ... strong emotions caught in a beautiful haiku.
