Time to announce the winners for My VDux Haiku Contest.
Judging is really hard because I liked every single entry, even the ones that didn't qualify. Upvote = approval and I want to thank everybody who entered:
@eprolific, @acousticsteveo, @anjkara, @moneyinfant, @bohohobo, @jadams2k18, @caesar2341, @jacksonl, @hope-k
And @debbietiyan and @jayo for trying.
I got 10 valid entries and could only pick 2. That means 80% of entries couldn't win.
If you didn’t win, please please please resubmit to the next contest, which I'll post soon. The next entry will have a theme (thank you @acousticsteveo for your suggestion) and if your Haiku fits the theme, use it! It's a free entry! Plus, you can also write another haiku and submit both -- double your chances of winning.
If you posted your entry on your blog and mentioned me, but I didn’t give you your upvote and resteem, please nag me, it was just an oversight.
Scroll down to see the winners.
Some acknowledgements before I announce the winners:
@moneyinfant for listing me in the contests newsletter. I advise anybody interested in steemit contests follow @moneyinfant.
@mermaidvampire for her positivity and advice.
@lymmerik for inspiring me to choose a form of poetry for my contest.
@firepower, my patron saint (he doesn't know that).
And now, without further ado...
Your winner: @bohohobo
Hi small traveller

Please reply to any of my posts (including this one) or connect with me on steam.chat to let me know what post you’d like me to resteem.

My next VDux Haiku Contest will open sometime in the next few days. Remember you can submit as many haikus as you want! Try again with the one you submitted for this one — you lose nothing and you might win!
Congrats to @bohohobo and @jadams2k18!
Congrats to the winners and @vdux for the contest. That was my first shot on haiku
It was really good! But only one can win, and only one runner-up. I'll host another contest soon -- will you participate again?
Yes i will
Thanks @vdux! Thank you very much.
I have many post, however, their 7 days have already passed. Some are beautiful stories created by me and they unfortunately did not have the recognition I wanted. So, could we leave the reestem for a future post for another day?
Thank you very much, again
Yes, of course. Reply to any of my posts or connect with me using steem.chat and I'll get on it. Meanwhile I'll post a shout-out on my blog in the next day or two. Thanks again for playing! I'll open another contest soon.

@vdux Thank you so much, this has really made my day :) I'm so happy :) I'd like you to resteem my latest post please. It's a dtube video about writing blogs in the English language, for ESL learners. Thanks again, I've got a big, cheesy smile on my face :)
Done. I sent your reward, too. I'll type up a quick shout-out and post it on my blog within the next 2 days (likely much sooner). Tough to commit to a specific time -- I have kids, day job, and some side projects that keep my running steady. But I always try to carve out a little time for Steemit!
Thank you :) I bought myself a bottle of wine to celebrate. Thanks for taking the time to do this, it was fun :)
