Haiku at the festival - results


A rather disappointing number of entries, 4! With 4 categories, spring summer autumn and winter that was a poor show. 1 summer entry, 1 spring, and 2 winter, so two winners were easy to decide. Only had to differentiate the 2 winter ones and a unanimous decision was easily reached.
Here are the results of the jury!!!
