just the croaks of knob-billed ducks…. a long night

My unpublished haiku has an autumn kigo—”long night” as in autumn, the days are shorter and the nights longer.
A blockbuster issue filled with nuggets of poetry and articles- a Kigo Lab Special. Congratulations to all featured poets.

Grateful to Patricia McGuire for featuring my 7 #haiku & #senryu—3 of them featured in the earlier #podcasts. 💕
The highlight is the insightful #commentary by the Judge – Jerome Berglund on my “rising fog” haiku which was selected by him for Honorable Mention on the theme of toriawase. Another haiku “city rush” also received Honorable Mention in the flash ku.
The #journal carries my #haibun “Frozen” paired with Ravi Kiran’s beautiful haiku. Thanks Ravi for sharing it!
Grateful to Jorge Alberto Giallorenzi, Editor, Espacio Luna Alfanje for featuring my #haiku in English and Hindi with a photo by him in the January 2024 issue. My haiku has been translated in #spanish by him. The theme is New Year.
Congratulations to all #poets whose work has been included.
Grateful for the good news received today from The Haiku Foundation’s Monthly #Kukai contest—my haiku won the 1st Prize (tie). The theme was “festival”. In December there were 141 submissions from twenty-six countries across five continents. Seventy-five voters casting ballots determined the results.
Thanks to all haijin who voted for my haiku.
Delighted to select a book as a prize from the impressive list sent by Tom Borkowski, the THF Kukai Administrator.
