The first round will last until midnight EDT on Thursday, March 25th. The run-off poll will last until midnight EDT on Sunday, March 28th. (Times are approximate, since I'm forgetful and often lazy.)
A couple of quick notes:
- Don't judge on spelling and punctuation. Judge on the emotion that the haiku inspires in you.
- Discussion is fine, but please do be polite if you offer a critique. These are works of the heart!
- I've decided in my role as arbitrator that the entries listed here are valid. I've been a bit lenient with syllables in some cases, but I can justify all my decisions. So there!
====================
#1:
Silently Watchful
Ready to Defend my life
Should the need Arise
#2:
Evanescent beast
Prowling the walls of Zul'drak
Behold Gondria
#3:
Prey sighted ahead
Spirit Beast lopes at my side
THIS is true freedom
#4:
There he stands, King Krush,
My heart beats vigorously,
A most royal tame.
#5: Humar
He rests peacefully
Beneath the Joshua tree
Truly king of beasts
#6:
Floating On The Breeze
As They Glow and Glide With Ease
Sporebat Expertise
#7:
Enter, I will not
Wolf mine, Fenrir, feeding needs
Haiku, hard is
#8:
a feral druid
would make an excellent pet
but a wolf will do
#9:
must I use my wolf?
I have this kick-ass turtle,
no furious howl
