Many thanks to everyone who entered the Tutt Library First Annual Haiku Contest. Our panel of 13 judges made multi-tiered blind votes for their favorite haikus, and three prizes have now been awarded. The winning haikus are:
Third place goes to Judy Finley, for:
Computer screens don't smell as good
as pages turned
in a musty book.
Second place goes to David Cummings, with:
The crucial book comes
Three days after you need it
O, cruel Prospector!
And the first place winner of this year's Haiku Contest is also David Cummings. The winning haiku is:
Final draft, finished
Excitement turns to horror
Print server is down
Congratulations to David for his continued reign as Tutt Library's Haiku King (and we invite all challengers to give it a go next April)! Once again, our thanks to all poets and judges for making this contest a rousing success. And check out the next issue of the Chronicle to see even more of our favorite haiku submissions.
