Honourable Mention
2015 World Haiku Competition
Comments from Judge Alan Summers:
Five brilliant haiku receiving honourable mentions, from an imaginative use of parentheses during a time of heavy snow; to storm clouds that may be inside a tulip; an antelope that is the hum of the wind in barbed wire; to the blue filtered light as a man of war decays; to the iconic tumbleweed where perhaps it wishes to ride the now defunct railway line possibly by a long gone ghost town.
These are astonishing honourable mentions all worthy of winning competitions in their own right.
