Hello. And thanks for your patience while we 'judged'.
We thought they were all fantastis - and it was really hard to choose the winners.
Special mentions to BoffinMum, bisjolympics and FasterHigherBeardierDaddyman for repeated haiku brilliance throughout the thread.
And extra-special commendations to rockinhippy's dc, jimswifeinTokyo1964 ds and onadifferentplanet's ds for junior haiku wizardry.
But our overall winners are :
In achingly gut-wrenching 4th place (but we'll see if we can find you a consolation prize): ApplesinmyPocket for...
"Great Britain takes gold!"
We've heard that much more often
than we expected.
Bronze medal: OatyBeatie for...
G4S wrote this
But ran out of syllables.
Army did last line.
Silver medal: FairPhyllis for...
Before the swimming
Didn't think it possible
To rhyme with 'Naughtie'
Gold meal: rockinhippy: for...
Thunder BOLT, Lightning
Very, very frightening
Mama Mia - GOLD
