This was a touching, sad and really well written poem that evokes true human emotion and compassion... Congrats.
Thank you to all the participants who made this contest a success. This week, we had so many amazing entries and it was very hard for us to judge. We had a lot of fun reading them all and deciding the winners. Everyone gave their best effort and they were all great poems, however please make sure that you check your syllables and words before you enter and submit your entry. There were some great entries that would have won but they were not a Haiku. Don’t worry, I will be introducing in the next post the tool which I use to count syllables anc correct my own Haikus. Thanks again.
I will be posting the next contest "Week 15” in the very next post today. If you didn't win this week, then you have another chance to take the top 3 spots in Week 15. Best of luck to you all, and thanks again in making Haikus Great Again.
