A “troiku” linked to Carpe Diem Haiku Kai. A troiku takes original haiku and make three new haiku beginning with lines from the original.
Original haiku, inspired by Jane Reichhold’s haiku:
the night is shortened
dark clouds disappear at dawn
with a rising sun
My troiku, using lines of original:
the night is shortened
when sweetly blessed with deep sleep
awaken refreshed
dark clouds disappear
stars now slowly extinguish
and clear dawn will break
with a rising sun
tea time on new patio
you and i greet day
