WHCshowcase is designed solely for showing the choicest and best works of high quality from various WHC fora, kukai, competitions etc., carefully selected for this purpose. Although this is not the only such outlet, it will help to establish the highest standards and quality against which haiku poems and haiku-related genres can be evaluated and written. It will also feature those works from other sources such as various anthologies or haiku magazines, which could be commended as fine examples of the genres.

As a 'showcase', this is NOT for discussion or for members to post their works online, and as such is configured not to accept members' messages. If you have works by others and/or by yourself which you think highly of and deserve to be considered, please send such nominations to me at: susumu.takiguchi@btinternet.com.

WHCshowcase serves educational purposes of the World Haiku Club as a private entity. Works are therefore shown here for learning and study purposes and should not be regarded as 'published'.


To join, follow the usual Yahoo's subscription request procedure. Then, you will receive an automated application form which should be filled in and returned.

With very best wishes,
Susumu Takiguchi
Chairman, The World Haiku Club
