On July 12th, the 69th National Haiku Yamadera Tournament was held, welcoming Ms. Karin Wada, the head of "Fuei." After the awards for pre-submitted haiku by elementary, junior high, and high school students, she delivered an afternoon lecture titled "The Big Universe of Small Poems" ~Into the Depths of Stillness~. Following the lecture, awards were also presented for pre-submitted and same-day haiku in the general category, and the event concluded successfully. Thank you very much to everyone who participated.
