Wow. The response to the tax haiku this week has been phenomenal! I received nearly 100 responses via twitter, the blog and Facebook. Many of those were shared, reposted and retweeted many times over. It was a great contest and I am so grateful to those of you who participated – whether you wrote a haiku, retweeted, commented or shared!
Ten winners were chosen at random from all of the entries using a random number generator. Our winning tax haikus are:
@vkan:
90-day letter
