January Haiku Contest: Voting thread!

Post by Bear »

And now its come to everyones favourite time of the contest again... The Voting! Voting will then take place until the 1am GMT on the 27th.
Previous contest winners can win, but the prize will be defered down to the person with the next highest number of votes to make things fair to those who haven't yet won anything.
Everyone gets 1 vote each, and there will be 2 winners.
No you can't change your vote.
Its also only polite to vote for someone other then yourself.

The Prize as always, is a snazy colour for your name, and a shiny rank title.

So here as a reminder before everyone votes are all of the enteries, in no particular order... Okay, so they're in the order of when they entered... but I'm lazy. :p

PS. Yes, I did warn everyone they'd be competing against Frankie. :ymdevil:

Bit more of a classic feel - I hope. ;)

Edit: Specified flower to lower syllable count - "dapple" is way too nice a word to change. ;)

Dance wildly in the moonlight
Collars optional.

And the race sets off!!! Lumbering out of the gates with a fast start is... Frankie!!! o_O

But there, on Frankie's back, claws hooked into pink fur, is peppercat!!

Actually, we should comment on the voting in Haikus! :D

Frankie has fast start
Pepperkitty on his back
clings for her dear life

Weird sense of humor
Bear is always so grumbly
Appreciates not

By the way, thanks to phoenix for the dedication, but...

A classic Haiku
Pitterpatters my heart more
Than a well-meant joke
