This is wonderful. I just feel so -- small -- because I've never placed in a Mainchini haiku contest, let alone won one! :)

Good grief..Aurora. It all depends on how some judge feels on a particular day. Really.

I'm joking - partly. I am thrilled to see so many winning pieces here, though. It's good learning ground for the rest of us.

A vivid moment, kirsty. How beautifully you place "crest."
Aurora, you're always a winner with me.
