Judging


I and @verbal-d have judged all the entries based on originality, creativity, and clever-wittiness

Announcing The Winners!


Honourable Mention # 1:


@Puppetmaster1111's

"Cyber Warefare"


What then is our gift?
If knowledge is used to kill
Love has no value

The technology has been making the world more cold, but love will prevail. It always will. Nice thought provoking Haiku. Congrats

Honourable Mention # 2:


@Emdesan's

"Untitled"


When the world dies down
I take off my mask to breathe,
My broken pieces.

This is a very revealing and vulnerable Haiku that shows the profound sadness one feels when masking their troubles to a lively nonstop world. Congrats

3rd Place:

1.5 SBD

@Edgarstudio's

Envision & Be The Change


I'm deep in my thoughts
Wondering how to create
Songs and change the world

Music is indeed powerful and this poem shows that artists have a hand in helping to change the world with their gifts and talents. Congrats.

2nd Place:

2.5 SBD

@Holgerwerner's

Dawn


The Stars are fading
Dark colors getting brighter
Earth takes a deep breath

This entry is very poetic and artistic in nature. The personification of the Earth was a nice ending as well. Congrats.

@Macro-D's

I Trusted Her


One day he asked her
Have you ever lied to me?
She lied again - NO

This is Haiku is so real and relatable. Trust is indeed a fragile and rare thing nowadays and you painted a tragic theme that repeats itself throughout history. Congrats.

Thank you to all the participants who made this contest a success. This week, we had so many amazing entries and it was very hard for us to judge. I had a lot of fun reading them all and deciding the winners. Everyone gave their best and they were all great poems. I will be posting the next contest "Week 22" in the very next post today. If you didn't win this week, then you have another chance to take the top 3 spots in Week 22. Best of luck to you all, and thanks again in making Haikus Great Again.

This contest is sponsored by @verbal-d and the lovely and kind @soldier, and they support good projects, want to strengthen our community, and give back to our poets. We are grateful for their contribution and commitment to us.

Would you also like to support this contest as a sponsor so that the winning prizes can be more rewarding for our participants? Please contact @moonleesteem on steemit.chat or reach me in the comments section below for more info.
