A collection of "haiku cycles" contains twelve haiku from each participating poet, with one for each month and with locally relevant kigo (season-words) for a single geographic region (e.g., a poet from London writing a cycle would use kigo specific to London).

With WHC members all over the world, this collection of haiku cycles could prove useful in dealing with the vexing question of the use of kigo in the face of the internationalization of haiku. This exercise is intended to further the World Haiku Club's agenda for reformation of haiku technique in the context of the development of haiku in western languages.
