Its Renku Saturday #44, revisit Renku Saturday #43
Comment a verse to the haiku dialogue if you wish, i'll edit, and pin it upfront

swatting mosquitoes...
tired hands accrue
angry tempers

thin legs of a boy kicking
discarded tins in the street

--gillena cox

Chasing dragon flies
Today what place is it
he has strayed off to?

--Chiyo-ni (1701-1775)

around and around
burn away the will to bite
smoke swirls higher still

--somepinkflowers


First snow falling
through darkness

--Lorraine


reading in blanket
caressing the spot on wrist
mosquito sucked through

Curious as to why the switch from candle to coil?

Gillena Cox said...

the mosquitoes seem insenitive to the citronella candles, even though they would shy away from citronella incense; couldn't get incense so i took the next most effect the coils, it seems the smokiness annoys them

much love...
