What started 31 days ago as a mindful challenge...composing one haiku a day for the month of January, has become a welcome respite in my day. I have enjoyed the discipline of pausing to consider a moment during my day...a sight, an emotion, a memory and choosing how to craft the haiku. I have immensely enjoyed reading other's haiku and am so grateful to those who shared this challenge with me or simply "liked", commented, or shared some of the submissions. Over the next week I will attempt to aggregate and post the many haikus that were tagged with #haikuchallenge16. Stay tuned for the collection! Again, deep gratitude to each of you for reading and sharing during this first month of 2016 and being a part of #haikuchallenge16
