AR is right.
How did that rhyme go? ... oh, yeah...

"Patience is a virtue,
A little more won't hurt you."

Please be patient - the deliberations are taking longer than we anticipated. There are so many many wonderful poems to choose from!!

We will be extending the voting because of this delay.

Thank you \:\)

Read all 6 Haiku. They are in no particular order. Choose the one you like best, and vote for the corresponding number choice in the poll. It was a very tough decision for us, so take your time when voting \:\)


#1
Our pixel people
Run back and forth on the map
Of our VV games!

#2
Sun sparkle delight
warms earth and the buried seed
bursts upwards in sight.

#3
I hear from the sky
"No! Not the coconut trees!"
I climb anyway

#4
Isola's ocean
Glistening in the sunlight
Villagers delight

#5
Swift, choppy ocean,
Washing up colorful shells,
Kids splashing about.

#6
clicking, dragging, drop.
no sleep, the village can't stop.
as head hits desk: plop!

Read all 5 Tanka. They are in no particular order. Choose the one you like best, and vote for the corresponding number choice in the poll.

#1
A new mother rests
With a baby on her lap
Gazing at the sea
Or looking up at the sky
And reaching for whats beyond

#2
Pacific island,
By the name of Isola,
Home to many tribes,
Skirted by beautiful trees,
Surrounded by blue oceans.

#3
Isola is great,
Villagers are living there,
we control their fate,
We guide them and let them thrive,
First they must learn to survive.

#4
Slumbering island
Such lonely whispering winds
Echoing laughter
Lost children skip-chasing through
This isolated terrain

#5
Soil in the pot, then
Add in a little water
Drop in the small seed
And wait for it to grow tall
To show us its pretty blooms

Tanka Contest

Tanka #1 - 4 (15%)
Tanka #2 - 4 (15%)
Tanka #3 - 9 (35%)
