--Raegan Bradbury (Misawa, Aomori Prefecture)
The 11-year-old haikuist at Sollars Elementary sketched a peaceful scene of sea turtles returning on the tide to lay eggs on the beach where they were born. His classmate, Aaron Royston, discovered a remarkable stone.

Arvinder Kaur alluded to the words of Peggy Willis Lyles (1939-2010), which appeared in a 1980 issue of “Cicada” in Canada: summer night we turn out all the lights to hear the rain.
quarantine
to hear the rain
Noisy Brood X periodical cicadas that remained underground for 17 years are emerging by the trillions now that ground temperatures are soaring over 17 degrees Celsius in North America. Haikuists have to clamor quickly to mark this generation in 17 syllables. Soil warms earlier because of climate change. Before 1950, cicadas used to emerge at the end of May; now they’re already singing. Matsuo Basho (1644-1694) experienced both rain and insect songs in Yamagata Prefecture.

Departed souls
white magnolias
The warming climate coaxed the arrival of a cherry blossom on March 26 in Kyoto. That is the earliest ever recorded since 1409. The date of the first Japanese cherry blossom to appear at Jisho Shrine, Kiyomizu Temple, in Kyoto has been tracked for 732 times since the year 812. This long and complete seasonal record serves as proxy evidence that phenologists use to study seasons and that haikuists can use to compare traditional and modern haiku. Subir Ningthouja awaited news of the cherry tree that is faithfully measured at Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo.

Satoru Kanematsu received complimentary bus tickets in Nagoya. Enjoying her garden in Tokyo, Junko Saeki was nonplussed by the soaring number of private companies selling Starship tickets to the international space station or around the moon. Tsanka Shishkova was enticed by the new way to travel.

--Isabella Kramer (Nienhagen, Germany)
The haikuist alludes to a Greek goddess who kept evil from entering the front door in exchange for an offering of dinner on the last day of the lunar month. Wolves go hungry this time of year, notes Anne-Marie McHarg in London. According to the Canadian edition of the Old Farmer’s Almanac, in early British colonial times wolves howled from the crossroads to villages.
Howling wolf
Into the moon
A wolf was recently seen in Kall, Germany, running away from a hillside village of 70 people where Lothar M. Kirsch lives. The wolf has been quiet, so the news didn’t spread beyond the community, but the haikuist thinks “the wolf is too wise to announce his arrival in the Eifel Mountains.” The low mountain range is in North Rhine-Westphalia.
