Thanks.<br /><br />Fishy surely has this down, and understands Haiku well. Your patient and humorous explanation was perfect.<br /><br />Long day here in the wild west, so I'll just say thanks to all. I learned a lot form this exchange.<br /><br />Hope all of you have some leftover chocolate after the big evening. You may need it to ward off those chocoholic goblins (or your own transient chocolate cravings).<br /><br />Red AnonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921507599448776255.post-63001411538644528832011-10-25T15:41:53.372-07:002011-10-25T15:41:53.372-07:00Good evening Aunty Belle,

Great subject this week as is indicated by the number of very fine entries.<br /><br /><br />I actually had my heart pulled to some others as the winning wit. But! You are right in recognizing we have strayed a bit on the rules of haiku with the kigo and kireji taking a back seat to the 17 syllables. (There are , in fact, many examples of this deficit in most of my entries). I admire your staunch defense of honoring the rules, else we might be calling this game <br />17 Mondays.<br /><br />I need to think a bit before announcing next weeks subject. I will follow the classic rules as defined here, requiring a Kigo and, a Kireji as well as the 5-7-5 format. Visuals may be a factor in the final judging and all participants may offer three haiku.<br /><br /><br />@ Anon,<br />I hear you! I seriously wish I could be one of those who can zing in there with just a single perfect offering. I cannot ever decide if my brain just runneth over or if I've misplaced my delete button :-)<br /><br />Next week, following your recommendation, entries will be limited to 3 per contestant.fishyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15169980377922293950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921507599448776255.post-10157567753079788702011-10-25T07:45:09.226-07:002011-10-25T07:45:09.226-07:00Rules.
