Shiki kukai February 2012





falling stars
letting go of memories...
almost


The free format theme in February was "night lights"(natural) and I was placed seventh with this entry.


In the Kigo section the theme was "lingering cold" and I was not even in the top 10, but still I kinda like my entry here.

Hey Sanjuktaa!

It pays a lot reading your blog every now and then. Loved your entry and in fact a belate congratulations on the sketchbook haiku from last year. I loved it!! Would you be kind enough to let me know the link for this Shiki Kukai - monthly programmes? Can anybody participate? Including me? As you know, I have just begun to explore and there are so many things out there I would like to get my hands on but one at a time I guess! I found a link but that dates back to 2011 and can not find the page for the current year. Of course archives do help to get a feel for them and also to read through the winning entries. Would appreciate your help. Take care!

Jayashree.
