The only requirement is to be original, thoughtful, and clearly expressed. I am waiting to see your unique interpretation! Let your words create a masterpiece that will impress us all.

Last week's winners!

The contest words for last week were STAR, TREE, and GRASS. Last week 14 contestants submitted their entries, which are all really well written. I found it quite difficult to select winners because every entry, except one, was so attractive. Based on contest rules, simplicity, content, presentation, and markdown style, I selected the two below entries for this week's booming award.

User	Post Link	Prize
@paholags	Link	Booming awards
@sur-riti	Link	Booming awards.

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