I have judged all the entries based on originality, creativity, and clever-wittiness
Announcing The Winners!
Honourable Mention:
@darthnava
"We"
Why, oh, why can we,
Be so blind to see that the
Ones we hurt are we.
I really liked your poem. It has a deep message that we should remember. Congrats
3rd Place:
1 STEEM
@Glyphzero's
Say No To Drugs
Drugs are for the fools,
You really want to be cool?
My friend, go to school
This has a very good message, which will never get old. Too many people abuse drugs to their death. Thanks for the poem. Congrats.
2nd Place:
3 STEEM
@Holothewise's
Modern Haikus Are Freestyle
Haiku need not be
Five-seven-five anymore
They are breaking free
This was a great freestyle poem, which shows you think outside the box.
There are many forms of Haikus and they are all fun to write. Congrats.
1st Place:
5 STEEM
@Mayliberty's
A Mother’s Love
She kissed her son's cheek
And the whole room had lit up
With love and... bright Stars.
A mothers love is very spiritual... super images and poetically written. I enjoyed it a lot. 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 me to judge. I had a lot of fun reading them all and deciding the winners. Everyone gave their best and they were all great poems. I will be posting the next contest "Week 10” 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 10. Best of luck to you all, and thanks again in making Haikus Great Again.
