From the first syllable to the last, all the font haiku contest
entries have displayed a true affection for fonts (no surprise
there, but still). We've been impressed each week by the quality of
your wordsmithery and we're downright sad that the contest is now
closed. All that remains is for us to pore over your poetry and
name a monthly winner, not to mention a grand prize winner. Check
in next week to find out who walks away with glory and an iPad
2.
Meanwhile, enjoy this week's winning haikus, composed by @TweetFH,
@Moosle, @KatieObrecht, @shiminagmo, and @nicolejaclyn and sampled
in the fonts they describe.
