Thank you, Sandra. Noted. This is very gracious of you and the haiku community is extremely grateful for the research that you undertake in order to compile the list of international competitions and contests.

Btw I spotted your messages above just minutes after I'd posted a thank you for your info on the Katikati contest! 😄

All the best.

Hi Lorraine, your post caught my eye.

Firstly, when pronounced aloud,lingering and lingerie sound very different to my ear. There is certainly visual similarity in that a lot of letters are the same, lingeri but the alliteration of L sounds is what I hear when I read this aloud and this has a sensual effect.

The word scent seems redundant, as this comes through inlavender. Even silk might be discarded. But that's just my opinion. In any case, just the three elements below are highly evocative. The lingering could refer to a hint of lavender in the air, or discarded lavender-coloured lingerie and the first and last words are a lot closer now.

You mention that it was used in a haiga. Perhaps it was simply the combination of art and text that didn't work for the editor?

Sorry, I seem to have answered your question with a question!
