Carpe Diem Tan Renga Wednesday: Persimmon


When I ate a persimmon
The bell rung
The Horyuji temple
sound from another lifetime
calling me to remember

~shiki & cie~


notes
The Hokku was written by Masaoka Shiki (1867-1902). The Ageku was created by me. I do believe that reincarnation is a possibility. I do not reveal this as an invitation to debate, merely as a statement of my thoughts on the matter.
