the lens of twilight
freezing and diminishing
in sun’s final flare
Kim M. Russell, 2017
My response to Carpe Diem #1220 Twilight
The summertime month continues with its regular kigo prompts and today Chèvrefeuille has chosen ‘twilight’. It has been taken from Jane Reichhold’s A Dictionary of Haiku and is therefore a modern kigo (season word) for summer.

My haiku is a re-working of part of a recent poem
A very nice twilight ! ” sun’s final flare” is really gorgeous.

I battled to find a kigo, then went without one. Didn’t know twilight can be a kigo!
