Tackle It Tuesday, Chrysanthemum


Tackle It Tuesday starts today with a new 'rule'. Every episode will stay on for two weeks. Why? Because of lack of time, I have my daily Carpe Diem haiku meme and for now that's my main meme. So this episode of Tackle It Tuesday will stay on 'till Monday November 26th 11.59 AM (CET) and I will post the new episode of Tackle It Tuesday that day around 10.00 PM (CET). Hope you all understand this.


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

Another week has passed away ... our last Tackle It Tuesday prompt was 'Wuthering Heights' and it wasn't a great success, but ... well it wasn't an easy prompt. So for this week I have chosen Chrysanthemum a wonderful Autumn (and Winter) 'kigo' or seasonword. It's really a nice flower for this time of year.
Last Sunday I was visiting my parents in law in Amsterdam. My father in law had a wonderful basket full of Chrysanthemum in his garden. They were wonderful colored, yellow, orange, purple and white. A nice Autumn bouquet. I was a bit sad after our visit, because I hadn't my camera with me. If I had ... than I could have shown you this wonderful Chrysanthemum basket. So now I will use another photo for this post.

so many colors
the backyard looks like a rainbow

in the garden
of my parents in law
Chrysanthemums bloom

a sea of colors
as far as you can see
blooming Chrysanthemums

Well ... I hope these haiku inspire you, my dear haijin, visitors and travelers, to be creative and write your own haiku. Please share your creativity with Tackle It Tuesday.
This Tackle It Tuesday episode will be staying on 'till November 19th 11.59 PM (CET).

Have fun!
