Okay, so this is mostly like Trixie's poem contest, but the difference is it's Haiku this time!
The basics of a Haiku are that they a generally about nature. But in this contest the possibillities are endless! Make a Haiku about anything! Haiku consist of three lines. The First line has five syllables, the second has seven syllables, and the last one has five!
~Everyone is welcom to join in.
~Three people will be awarded as winners.
~The contest's length will be about 3~4 weeks.
First Place~ Anything that you want. Sorry to say, not animations.
Second Place~ A choice of a traditional drawing of your fancharacter, of you can have a spot on my sig with your name on it!
Third Place~ A traditional drawing of your fancharacter.
Example~
Bright colored flowers
Golden buzzing bees soar high
Bees hidden for snow
Good luck to everyone!

Why do we have so long to write a haiku?
The Bakin' Muffins - December 29, 2008 03:30 AM (GMT)
Yes, you may enter more than one-i will take the favorite one that you wrote for the judging though-
To tell you the truth i am not sure why there is a long time limit but i think that i wanted people to feel like they didn't have to rush.

WOuld that mean you would pick one of the poems we wrote, and nominate it, or we pick our favorite one?
The Bakin' Muffins - December 29, 2008 04:04 AM (GMT)

I hope I can still join...never written one of these before, but it looks fun
in the night they cry
the winter is set ablaze
fire is the way out
spring air so gentle
the trees find their life anew
winter times behind

The final one is about Crocus Flowers.

These flowers usually come up through the snow in early to mid-Spring.

Life is a raindrop
That falls into a vast sea
And is forgotten.

Take one raindrop out
And the vastest sea will be
Less for want of it.
