Rush to Catch the Train
For Hannah Moore's Yūgen - a Community Renga
Wet shoulders fallen
Sloppy shoes untied but now
Rush to catch the train

Author's Notes: The brilliant mind of Vocal creator Hannah Moore inspired this Haiku. The Haiku stands on its own but was written to take its place in the Renga.
"Renga is a collaborative progressive poem ... join us! You just need to pick up where the last person left off, following an alternating format of 5,7,5 and then 7,7 syllable counts and linking your stanza to the last." -- Hannah Moore

Wonderful addition, Christy. The ultimate traveler, blues. Rushing to catch a train.
It is a new thing for me, and I found it quite interesting, I will try to learn and add. Thanks for sharing
Great addition! Getting things moving! I hopefully submitted the next two lines off the great launching point you provided
