  1. Haiku is extraordinary difficult, more so, much more so, than tanka…but you have succeeded here in my opinion. Gorgeous stuff, Bjorn….and obviously you have studied the classical forms….that is a BIG issue for me, because people think that they can throw out all of this stuff…

      • I will look into this site….have heard of it before.
        And yes, the kigo word would be butterfly….summer season word. I like that….moment of a thought that tries to elope!

  2. A delightful illustration – I have much to learn about haiku – each butterfly a teacher, as you are.
