The cave off the mind – I never thought of that.
Who knows where that door will take us?
Well done.

A bit of prediction there 😉 …
To be honest, this “direction” was the only one my mind tended to wander in while thinking about the haiku. Thank you. 🙂

Very deep haiku … caught in your mind’s cave … feels like a stone wall growing around you. What will it be? Can my mind become clear again? Or …
Thank you for sharing, namaste

Yes, one always hopes to find the way out. And keep wandering until finally does. Thank you very much.

Rather spooky or haunting mood here. Hoping not to get lost in that cave.

There always is a light in the end of a tunnel….or a cave in this case. 🙂 That is the hope at least.

I would like to know what exactly is this Carpe Diem Haiku ? I know what Carpe Diem is….
That apart, what you said makes a lot of sense. An open mind can be infected, but then… only an open mind can change the world for good too ! Much like love- an open heart can fall in love, or it can learn to hate as well. I guess the choice is upon the individual- which way she wants to go, most of the time.

A long story short – Kristjaan Panneman is doing an astonishing job hosting Carpe Diem Daily haiku challenge on his blog: http://chevrefeuillescarpediem.blogspot.nl/ A great place not just to challenge yourself into “knitting together” one or more of your own every day but also to share the love for haiku with other bloggers. And to learn….about haiku…all the way from the past till today.
What you wrote about an open mind…I remember there was a quote about one’ s mind working properly only when being open – just like an umbrella. Very much depends on the choices we make. As long as we are able to make them allowing our thoughts to flow freely.
Thank you very much for taking your time to read and to write the comment, Tatsat.
