  • Final notes:
    Thanks a lot for putting me in trouble to judge this contest It was very hard to decide but I was sure only for the gold one.
    It was a lot of different styles, feelings, pictures... Great poetry.

    Silver and bronze danced together - so...

    Here is my final decision:

    1. gold
    No More Poppy Progeny

    2. Silver
    Among Young Yellow Poppies

    3. Bronze
    Sown

    HM
    wings of a butterfly
    whenever I apologize...
    Her voice is made of angel songs

    As you see I added three HM trophies too because all of them deserve it.
