Winning Haikus!

Here are the winning haikus, along with the authors.  We didn’t know who wrote which one until after we sent them the results.

TIED FOR 1st PLACE
–Whales spout plastic tears. Behold a New Horizon! Hope dawns with the sun. — Karin Malmstrom
–Happy fish swims free. Meets the deep Oozeki trawl. Sample jar 1-3. — Pete Davison

2nd PLACE
–Along the currents. Drift plankton and trash alike. Our New Horizon. — Matt Durham

TIED FOR 3rd PLACE
–Our strong sturdy ship. Just a mote in a moon beam. In Pacific night. — Jesse Powell
–Steel and mesh descend. With peculiar appetite. Catching aliens. — Josh Jones
