Conversation at the edge of the void by Shitao
the void
when dragonfly leaves –
silence
its canopy
shadowing the void
as thrush sings

Carpe Diem Haiku – Shozanji
the void
when dragonfly leaves –
silence
Björn Rudbergs writings 
That first haiku is one that makes me sit and think – and much comes to mind. There is much there – in that void. The lack of the dragonfly’s presence is felt. I really think that is a wonderful haiku, and goes so well as a haiga. Your 2nd is so intricate, clever. I think there is no doubting it now. Every haiku you write is precise, with detailed imagery and a meaning that goes as deep as you want it to. Very fine art indeed.
Thank you.. I am humbled by your comment… really..Kristjaan’s comment on emptiness was really inspiring.
the void is always
bring back the dragonfly
listen to the thrush
Awesome set … that first is a non-classical masterpiece. You have given the emptiness a wonderful look.
You have shown the emptiness of the ‘void’ here, Bjorn.
Lovely as usual, Bjorn.
I agree with the comments above. The image was clear.
Nothing is empty that cannot be filled…
Pilgrims’ Filling
Void is scary…
And your haikus are thought provoking!
