Word Glow ~ for Carpe Diem’s Tan Renga Challenge #001, with Jane Reichhold
scattered in sand
embers of a saltwood fire
face to face with stars
the glow of our words
in the sea of night
Tan Renga—a two link chain
First three line link—Jane Reichhold
Second two line link—Rick Daddario
This is my first attempt at Renga. I question whether I have the appropriate association that is characteristic of Tan Renga between the first and second link. Of course, this is how I learn too. Fun.
As I understand it, permission has been given for this use of Jane’s initial haiku in this post (if this is incorrect, please let me know). Thank you, Jane. Because I did not have permission to include her haiku in a visual work I’ve used only my part of the Tan Renga in the image.
