#Haiku Happenings #8: Jules’ #renga soliloquy for my current #haikai challenge!
great mother – earth
hazy daze, seeder
spreads germ across damp spring fields
ringed by old cedardays lengthen crops will grow tall
corn will tassel, wheat will growfarmhands toiling land;
some city dwellers only
dream of open spaceringed by concrete walls; germs spread –
kept at bay by healthy foodscome out of the haze
give thanks and praise to farmers
in every season©J/h

Frank’s haikai 33
…let our kigo be Spring rain (harusame) or Autumn rain (aki no ame)Note: germ is another word for seed.
