加藤憲曠 かとう けんこう award

鮫角燈台 is a haiku work by 加藤憲曠, condensing a sense of place and the passage of seasons into a small verbal space. Its prize recognition suggests an achievement in capturing everyday scenes and memories with precision while leaving room for the reader's imagination.

In the space around brief lines, place and season quietly come into view.
