Thank you! I don't enjoy writing with promts but it's for discipline! Thought Romanian deserved a Haiku! Especially the Carpathian mountains which are amazing!
It was taken last summer while hiking in Ciucas Mountains. I love that part of the Carpathians.
And even if you come back to see everything with new eyes, the picture would be the same: beautiful places unrespeced, unknown, unappreciated by Romanians. Unfortunatelly you'd pretty much find what you left.
The wolf is kind a cool symbol, but the eagle and cross are more uplifting. Probably a smart marketing move to change the symbols, though I guess it wasn't intended as marketing. Or was it?
Thank you, Christine! I love taking pictures and it just felt right for this haiku. Unfortunately I don't have design skills - it could have looked better!

ReplyDeleteNice! And I didn't know that about the wolf.
ReplyDeleteAnd I did get an answer to your A to Z question. If you are blogging twice a day, that's cool. Just be sure to label which one is the A to Z post.
ReplyDeleteThanks for finding that out for me.
DeleteWe have beautiful history and a beautiful country but all tha people know is Dracula and maybe Naida Comaneci and Hagi.
Very cool photo...One day I'd love to go back to Romania and see everything with new eyes:)

Lovely! I have great respect for wolves. I'm always glad to hear when there's a positive reflection of them somewhere.

Oh, wolves are very well rooted in our mythology and folklore. Our mythology is very extensive but little explored. I plan to work on that.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant haiku! I have such difficulty writing these. You do it so well. :D
ReplyDeleteThank you, Shaharizan! I really enjoy writing haiku.
DeleteI love wolves, but didn't realize they were the symbol of Romania back then. That is cool!

Nope, no marketing there, I suppose, since this change was made long ago.
DeleteLove this one. The picture is perfect for it.
