Dear sweet Mala, I’m so delighted to see that your beautiful haiku has been awarded a very well deserved first place. I love your choice of skilled words to convey much. This form suits you so well with your wonderful, expressive poetic heart. Loved it. Hugs to you dear friend for a peaceful weekend where hopefully there will be so melodic birdsong. Xx

Great haiku. Summer afternoons are so fatiguing especially Indian summer, when even birds stop twittering. Congratulations Mala on your first place win.

A summer afternoon in the countryside, when the heat gives us a right to enjoy a siesta; even the birds are of the same opinion, Mala!! Congrats on your win. Regards // paul
