To mark the Southern Hemisphere Spring Equinox in 2025, we offer a new interactive opportunity – a chance to contribute a Haiku Musing and to respond to other poets’ musings. The prompt question for you to muse on is:
What do you find most helpful when writing haiku?
Writing a haiku can involve many considerations, such as where you find inspiration, the kinds of experiences you like to write about, your aims and approach, the haiku craft and techniques you employ, and how you go about editing your compositions. You are invited to share your thoughts on aspects important to your haiku compositional process.
Please keep your Musing to no more than 250 words.
You may also respond to other poets’ musings with succinct comments.
This Haiku Musing event opens on Saturday, 20th September 2025, Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST), and closes on Sunday, 28th September.
We look forward to contributions from haiku poets worldwide.
Please enter your musing in the comments section below, and reply to a poet’s musing by using the ‘reply’ option below the comment.
