A haiku then.

Warm hearts, hospitably abide

It's a gift, this cloudless November morning
warm enough to walk without a jacket
along your favorite path. The rhythmic shushing
of your feet through fallen leaves should be 
enough to quiet the mind, so it surprises you 
when you catch yourself telling off your boss
for a decade of accumulated injustices,
all the things you've never said circling inside you.

The rising wind pulls you out of it,
and you look up to see a cloud of leaves
wheeling in sunlight, flickering against the blue
and lifting above the treetops, as if the whole day
were sighing, Let it go, let it go,
for this moment at least, let it all go.

I'm confident of a rule change to allow that ...

[CharlieH]

Maybe it should be "personality" of the year ! not poster.

That's more neutral.

 

I still think there should be a panel. The nominees are submitted to the panel.The panel decides who gets put in the Poll based on various criteria. Then ONE simple vote. Done ! ????????

I think your idea is towards getting a legitimate winner, but i enjoy the process. every year the POTY generates many thousands of posts. That has got to be good for the forum.

The "process" can still be there in panel selection and nominees etc.

It could be a good mix of both.

[sipi]

I think the last one worked relatively well without having to pick from groups like previous contests.

[geronimo]

We could have a humorous round, where laughs are counted ....

[transam]

If "likes" were included the past winners would not have won...
