Apparently it’s Nehene tomorrow. And what better way to cekebrate than to have it as prompt in Carpe Diem.

Perfect capture of enlightenment !!!
This is the second time I’ve come across this starving Buddha in the last 24 hours. What is the world trying to tell me? To write? Probably.;-)
😉
And the dead has no appetite to taste of Nirvana.
It depends I think… 🙂
second haiku was powerful..well done
Thank you
I love both of these but the last line of the first captured me. 🙂
Thank you 🙂
Can’t say I understand what’s up with the rat.
Second on matched the picture.
Cheers!

profound!
The starving buddha caught my attention . Your words today give much ‘food for thought’ Thank you for your insightful writing … it is always a treat to visit you even when you challenge, like today!
you catch the gist of the tale!
that’s a great image! love this, very deep… ^^ i think the prompt really deserves some serious reflection and haiku with depth. you took your time and did just that
The first haiku is like a teaser, until the main course of a plate laden with dramatic emptiness until Nirvana! Stunning!
Very strong set Bjorn, love the way you have used our prompt for today. I think that all and everything are seeking Nirvana.
WoW.
Peace,
