parts.

# 2 “Active”/dynamics in
the signs of fall/spring depending on which hemisphere you live in.
Active/dynamic = try to get movement/action/something happening in the haiku

Maybe that wasn’t exactly what you meant with the prompt Johannes, but when I dragged the word “surreal” through my head, this was the first thing that came up. It was, and still is very surreal to me, how this could happen I Norway

nat navigation

night
navigation
one eye on
the paddle and one
on the
North Star
The other weekend I took a course in night
navigation. It’s not very often I paddle in completely darkness, because of the
bright nights we have here during summer. But that night was very dark and
every time I dragged my paddle through the water the bioluminescence lighted up
around it. And the North Star just
hanging there on the same spot like always, guiding sailors in all times. That was really an amazing experience. I find
it very difficult to fit it into a haiku
