Hey, I’ve never known creating Tan Renga was such fun. You learn as you live, quite clearly. My friend, Chevrefeuille, regularly posts challenges and prompts at his awesome blog site, and today, I finally paid attention to this new thing for me. If you need explanation and guidance, you’d better visit his post. And here are my two contributions:

it must have bloomed
from a wintry shower
in a hurry before springtime

mists over the foreign highlands –
waiting for the full moon
the field will find its
forgotten army of tall grass.
