For today’s adventure, I’ve entered my very first poetry competition!

I’ve selected 10 of my haiku for a haiku calendar competition. Entries are open to anyone , anywhere in the world, and a haiku will be selected for each calendar month.

Because my haiku adventure tracked the transition from Summer into Autumn, my entries are limited to the months of August, September and October.

This has been an exciting adventure – and an interesting one. I feel no sense of exposure or risk. I’m not worried about what the expert panel thinks of my haiku. Winning something isn’t even on my radar. Instead, I feel thrilled that an expert panel is actually going to read my collection of haiku! And, I feel a sense of connection to the haiku community too.

I am just going outside and may be some time.
