Twitter Haiku Contest

By Mike Licht

Twitter Haiku Contest

Sunday at midnight
Twitter haiku deadline falls
Like soft spring blossoms

Copyblogger’s Twitter Haiku Writing Contest ends Sunday, November 16, 2008 at Midnight Eastern Time.

The passing of a haiku contest deadline always evokes a profound sense of mono no aware, the unique pathos that accompanies contemplation of the transience of all things.

[Sigh. Sip tea. Resume reading.]

Win a MacBook Air! Wait! There’s more! Act NOW! Copyblogger is standing by!

[Snort. Gaijin. Sigh.]
