Carpe Diem
April 9th - Libra (The Scale)
her tongue like a sword,
perfect measurement of truth -
his yin-yang ballance
Gods in written worlds,
poets and historians -
of truth and justice

NaHaiWriMo
April 9 - sound
remembering now
most wonderful sound ever,
her baby first cry
Haiku Heights
April 9 - hunter
through crude-green wheat fields
following the prey's callying -
pheasant hunting night
