I recently joined a Haiku group and thought I should have another Haiku contest.
This one is simple in that I only want three haiku
This time make all three of them different.
Simple traditional haiku 5-7-5 syllables
all pertaining to nature etc.
RULES
1 Be nice
2 Have fun
Yippie!

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on September 8, 2007
- Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 8 people
- Final notes: I wish I had more time to judge but I fell behind because of my work load. I did enjoy these poems very much.
One thing that stuck out was that hiaku is a structered poem and when we put three of them together they tend to become one poem
That is not the idea of haiku All three poems should be a poem unto itself able to stand on its own as a haiku.
Well done again no losers here all the poems were good.
