My poetry friend, Kristjaan Panneman from the Carpe Diem haiku blog, has an interesting prompt for haiku lovers. We are supposed to read a poem, get inspired by it and create our own haiku. I found the story behind, and the poem itself really attractive and intriguing. To cut the long story short, go over there and see for yourself. Krisjaan has a magnificent way to introduce prompts, I really love his presentations.
Here is my haiku:

Carpe Diem – Distillation #2
My eyes believe not
Her face is on the pyre
Evening sky falls apart.

I can see the sky crying… what a great distillation..
Nice to see you here again Mariya and with a gorgeous haiku distilled from the poem I gave by Genji. Really you’ve caught the essence of the poem.
Wow!
