Last week's winners!

Last week's contest words were LOVE, CLOUDS, and PATH. I'm a little disappointed because only eight participants entered this week for my contest. The closing date was entered one day sooner than it should have been, which was another mistake I made. Therefore, I failed to notice the final 24-hour entries. The majority of competitors have written about love, but only two have written about clouds. This shows us how important love is.

Anyway, it was really challenging for me to choose winners because all of the entries were so appealing. Based on contest guidance, simplicity, markdown style, and content presentation, I selected the two below for this week's booming award.

Congratulations to the winners, and thank you everybody for taking part in this competition.
