OK, after a brief hiatus and some fast pedalling in an attempt to get caught up on everything else, Nancy is back.

Please cast your votes here for best haiku, with comments if desired.

Barring any further contre-temps ;-) this contest should close Sunday at midnight EST.

My choice Sep 18, 2003

Hi everybody,

It's quite hard to get the right choice amongst all of these excellent kaïkus, indeed !

As I feel a little bit sad tonight, I would say :

1. Emilio

Sad haikus in a sad date - Sep 11

Santiago de Chile
Nineteen seventy three,
September eleventh, remember

New York
Two thousand one,
September eleventh, remember

2. Rita

Saddest day, that day
when she felt the cold wind blow -
no shelter, no warmth


3. Aurora

If crime does not pay
and translation does not pay,

4. Enrique

Pain behind my eyes.
Get no rest, must keep typing,
deadline tomorrow.


5. Enrique

“I love you” she wrote
I answered back “te amo”...
and got the four points!


That's all, folks ! Et que le (ou la) meilleur(e) gagne !

Ciao, Jean-Marie ▲ Collapse
