Good evening my Peeps and fellow Haiku Hubbers!

Today TJ gave us the prompt Reflect, and this photo

Judy, my Blog Sis, of Edwina’s Episodes, suggested a monthly theme for the Haiku challenges that TJ sets for us, which was ‘Retro’. Therefore, he took the picture and gave it a ‘retro’ feel!

I took the word Retro and wrote what came to mind when I hear the word… all about Disco!

Well hello all you Haiku enthusiasts (and those who aren’t, but read all my posts anyway)!

It has been a week already since I hosted the first of a monthly event sparked by TJ and his Haiku Hub idea.

I posted a photo…(taken in Shorne Woods Country Park)

20160807_151437 And gave you a word prompt too –

Heritage

Then asked you to do your best with either/both of the prompts for haiku that you were inspired to write.

Can I just say thanks to all who submitted an entry, it was fantastic to see the response, seeing as this was the first time I ever hosted a challenge like this!

So, here is a list of all those Hubbers who entered!

First in, Judy with her take, based on family momentos
