Carpe Diem #1575 Fuyukasumi (Winter Mist)


Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

I hope you all have had a wonderful New Year's Eve and an awesome start of 2019. I had for sure a wonderful New Year's Eve ...
This month we are finding our inspiration through the kigo (seasonwords) of winter. Yesterday I started with a modern kigo extracted from Jane Reichhold's "A Dictionary of Haiku" and today I have a nice classical kigo for you: Fuyukasumi (or Winter Mist)

I found a nice example of a haiku themed "winter mist" by Chenou Liu:

 Well ... we are on our way into a new year full of inspiration.

This episode is NOW OPEN for your submissions and will remain open until January 8th at noon (CET). I will try to publish our new episode later on.


Share your inspired Japanese poetry with us all here at our Haiku Kai.
