So this entry I had to write.I had suggested the word, and I love the word. Actually I wrote a iambic quartina a couple of months ago. Looking through my pictures I found a few pictures from a glacier lake in Norway. Color is that of jade. For other great entries go to Carpe Diem

  1. Thank you Bjorn for this wonderful prompt ‘jade’ and I am so glad that you’re the first haijin who’s posting on this prompt.
    You shared a wonderfully composed cascading haiku-set on ‘jade’ and that picture of a Norwegian glacier is really gorgeous. Thank you for sharing your creativity here on Carpe Diem.

  2. really enjoyed this. Glacier cold. You really brought me there.. the feeling and the image. Amazing what you can do with your words.
