Haiku Contest: We Have a Winner!

I tallied the final votes in the DARK SHADOWS HAIKU CONTEST this morning, and we had a pretty clear winner. With 73 "Likes" on our Facebook page, the poem you see above was the most popular submission.

Thanks to all of you who took part in this contest. I enjoyed reading the entries, and they were a pretty popular feature with our readers over at Facebook during the last three months, too. Curiously, there were a handful of poems that received NO votes, which meant the people who submitted them didn't even vote for their own entries. I suspect more than a few haiku posts were handicapped by Facebook's mindless changes to how updates appear in newsfeeds. Some of them likely went unseen by casual readers.

If you'd like to continue to submit haiku poems for use here and at Facebook, please do. And don't forget to enter for your chance to win a copy of the 2012 DARK SHADOWS movie on Blu Ray, which ends later this week.
