oh Flo I am so so so happy to see Charlotte at the top of the list she has always been always so encouraging to me since I joined soup and urged me to focus on short forms like haiku and one of my fave poems (heavenly herald) was written for one of her contests and later printed in a haiku journal , she is such a gifted writer:-) many congrats to the other winners:-) hugs jan xx

I also enjoyed Charlotte's Haiku. By usual standards a haiku is not supposed to use personification; but I cannot seem to write a good haiku without personifying some aspect of it. She was able to do that. :) Sorry I'm just responding Jan. I had turned the commenting option off but then saw in my inbox you had left a comment; but it wasn't visible on the blog itself. That could most definitely cause someone's feelings to get hurt if they think they've been blocked. Though I know you would never think that I had blocked you.
