This doesn't intimidate me as much as the sonnet contest, but truth be told, I probably need practice with writing sonnets since I never experiment with them in my own free time -_- |

I feel bad to see this, still your effort is more than appreciated. |

I know we all signed for another contest. But OP hasn't been back for awhile. How about reviving this contest? The haibun really is an interesting style & fun to learn. You have a prose prologue and a haiku about the subject. Traditionally it is about a place, like a travelogue almost. |

Thank you Samia...this was the very first poem that I wrote...I decided to start with the hardest form (IMO) and work my way back LOL!!! I've made a couple of little changes (just grammar really) but, although I can now see improvements that could be made...I'm very reluctant to do so. Just posted it as another example. |

Huh! Hellon, lol. And here I was, two days ago, writing a poem titled "Dear Hellon did it again" in which I expressed how I felt when, after appearing in my newsfeed, I couldn't read your poem titled " A year in the life of a Tree", just to find out that it's here in this thread. haha |

Okay, I'll judge it if I receive more than three entries. If not, I'll also participate in this thread with an entry. |

Will someone revive this contest, please? I think after all our suggestions are taken into consideration (suggestion box thread) we cab revive these contests...they are really great and just needs to be communicated to all. :-) |
