#Haikai Challenge 1

Welcome to my inaugural Haikai Challenge! Take your opportunity to contribute to the art!

It’s October! The famed harvest celebrations bearing the month’s name wind down in Bavaria but just get started in Germany. Fall foliage is around the  corner! And that spooky night waits in the wings. So raise your steins and get your KIGO on!

Your Challenge: Write any haikai poem—haiku, haibun, Tanka, senryu, Haiga—with the KIGO Oktoberfest!

Here’s how:

1. Write your haikai.

2. Include a ping-back to this post. How? Simply copy and paste this post into your haikai post.

3. Leave a comment with a link to your post.

That’s it! Enjoy!

        I’m happy you did it—you’re the first one who did. Now, don’t you want to share he joy with all of the other poets? 😉😆

        Hahaha! I will going forward. It was an interesting challenge, so sort of a trial run. I was like “Oktoberfest, hmm…”
