Hello Mastodon World Haikuists,
For over a year, you have joined together weekly to compose haiku, and I have had the pleasure of providing prompts filled with traditional kigo and other words found in modern English haiku. It’s been so much fun, but it’s time to hand over the weekly prompt to a new, fresh voice—Nathan Lowell! I look forward to Nathan’s prompts and hope to see you on the feed!
