"It was a clandestine affair. They planned something. As they planned, they were able to envision how it would be (Phantasmagoria). Later, the plan was executed. What remained was the memories which trailed in their minds (Phantasmagoria again)"
I wanted to convey this: "It was a clandestine affair. They planned something. As they planned, they were able to envision how it would be (Phantasmagoria). Later, the plan was executed. What remained was the memories which trailed in their minds (Phantasmagoria again)"
A most interesting and intriguing post. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteGreetings from London.
Thanks a lot :)
DeleteAfter referring to dictionary,I could get a faint understanding of the Haikus written with imagination.
ReplyDelete.
Thanks sir...
DeleteI tried to mean this:
"It was a clandestine affair. They planned something. As they planned, they were able to envision how it would be (Phantasmagoria). Later, the plan was executed. What remained was the memories which trailed in their minds (Phantasmagoria again)"
I hope that I was able to convey this thought...
Very interesting haiku.
ReplyDeleteThanks SG :)
Deletei like how you kept the mid line the same...
ReplyDeleteand the first lines near the same, but evoked quite different feelings....
a touch of scandal! :)
DeleteThanks Brian :)

DeleteHmm, rhyming, but trifle difficult to get to the root of what you intend to convey

I hope I did justice.
Thanks Anil :)
Hello greetings.
ReplyDeleteI had to refer to the dictionary to understand the meaning of Phantasmagoria . A jaw breaker indeed.
Clandestine affairs always end in Phantasmagoria and cherished long after the Clandestine affair is done.
Best wishes
You got it right sir...!
