Morning – 30 Days Wild (30/30)

Where sea and sky meet
and thoughts turn to my forebears

- That concludes my 30 Days Wild series of Haiku. I hope you enjoyed them.
- 30 Days Wild is an initiative organised by the Wildlife Trusts. It is an annual challenge event, for those who choose to participate, to do one ‘wild’ thing a day throughout the month of June. I will try to write a nature haiku every day if I can, as my contribution to this celebration of wildlife and biodiversity. I did this back in 2015 and thoroughly enjoyed the challenge.
