Carpe Diem, daydream, Ghana, Nature

I can’t imagine the last time I participated in the Carpe Diem Haiku Challenge. but today, I have been drawn to the blog of Kristjaan, the wonderful host, in celebration of the 8th Anniversary of the Challenge, this October 2020. I have truly missed reading Kristjaan’s works and that of the all the haijin. 🙂 I hope my offering captures today’s theme . 🙂

Done for Carpe Diem
