For today’s Tan Renga Challenge I have chosen for a wellknown haiku by Chiyo-Ni, as you maybe have read already on our twitter account. The goal is to complete the Tan Renga by adding a second stanza through association. That second stanza counts two lines of approx. 7-7 syllables.

I realized that in my garden in California the morning glory grew wild. I havent seen them in my forest home.
A beautiful pairing Carol.

I always think of morning glories as so very vulnerable, yet here supplicating the heavens for water. very nice.
