Murano haiga
I was in a quandary trying to figure out how to approach today’s Carpe Diem Haiku Kai about using the riddle technique, illustrated with two great classical haiku, when I discovered I could actually write two riddles!
This one was the second and I decided to turn it into a haiga. Below is the haiku our host Chèvrefeuille, composed for today’s episode which you can find following the above link:

What a great haiga…the sight of such a modern statue with that background is quite interesting.

It really is. Murano is famous of course for it’s glass factories that are centuries old. There are several of these sculptures throughout the island … really cool.
