Ms. Masako Betsuyaku kindly and delightedly presented her favorite photo to the World Haiku Series 2020.
It is a photo of Karahashi Bridge over Lake Biwa: 琵琶湖にかかる瀬田の唐橋
Profile: Now I live in Shiga prefecture, where Lake Biwa is located. I made a haiku about the scenery of Lake Biwa. I'm a beginner in English haiku, so there may be mistakes, but I'd be happy if you could get a feel for the scenery of Shiga prefecture. Thank you for reading.
