Our inspiration on Carpe Diem Special this week is a tanka, written by a wonderful haiku poetess Laura Williams a.k.a. Lolly of Lovely Things:
* * *
spring tidings …
a message of the flowers
to decipher
a secret little alphabet
that begins with a bee
* * *
Here’ s my attempt to stay close to the same mood and spirit:
* * *
growing older
with each new blossom
even a bumblebee
* * *
It would be nice if we had enough bees for each new flower to have its own.
