Thank you, Food Dude, and sponsors, for creating the haiku contest. May I use my winner’s prerogative to mention my favorite haikus in the contest?
The alliterative Andrea’s three P’s.
John the Bastard’s witty varietal still gets me giggling.
Minh-Triet Pham’s tablecloth baptism.
Richard Sharpe’s evocative seasons.
Of course you may send my email address to the sponsors, and as I have provided them with my very best haiku, I am looking forward to enjoying their very best wine!
