It’s great to see how many of you enjoyed the swallow, haijin! Congratulations to last week’s contributors:

Moving forward:

“Spring has sprung,” so the saying goes. The temperature reached almost 70 degrees farenheight today–enough for me to run my errands in a T-shirt! With the warmth has come the nighttime sounds of frogs awakening from hibernation, and the daytime delight of songbirds.

Even the one that sang right outside my window at 6:30 this morning!

Keeping with our theme of welcoming the new season, this week’s kigo is twittering (saezuri). Write the haikai poem of your choice (haiku, senryu, haibun, tanka, haiga, renga, etc.) that states or alludes to twittering (saezuri).

As always:

Here’s how the challenge works:

1. write the haikai poem of your choice.
2. post the link of your post to Mister Linky.
3. pingback by posting the link to the challenge on your site.
4. read and comment on other contributors’ posts.

Twitter on, haijin!
