♥ Haiku Mania ♥

Well hello!!!

I've decided to make this contest last longer, up to my birthday, November 11!!

Welcome to this contest called: Haiku Mania!!

Okay here's what I want:

-Three line haiku (how many times you press enter doesn't count)
-I want them fresh!
-Dealing with either glass or water (and make these two have something to do qith birthday as well)
-No StIcKy CaPs or DQ
-No cussing or DQ
-No adult stuff (I'm just 14)


Please make sure it is legible!
And I prefer you choose soft, light blue backgrounds, though any is great. If you've read this far you must put "kurgle" in your author notes or you shall be DQ. And please make them short, sweet and very beautiful. I love imagery, so welcome! Please no suicidal anything, make it calm pleasant and cheerful.

I shall be updating this from time to time, so keep in touch!

I hate huge font. I like delicate italics and small font. Though not super tiny!

Note: If you belong in the group OLCFC Online, send me a message saying so, we have special awards for you.

    Well, FINALLY I have finished judging this contest! Hooray!!!

    Thanks for all the bday stuff, really nice! ^^

    I was amazed at the amount of entries, this was my best contest yet! Though, I was disappointed at how many people did not follow instructions. But, next time, maybe I'll judge sooner too! And hopefully I'll get enough points together to make another Haiku contest!

    Thanks for the entries, and good luck on your next contest!
