Thanksgiving haiku

Partake in some holiday inspired amusement at my friend Cathy's blog.

Feel free to submit
your own haiku if you wish
in Cathy's comments.

*****
Dad is shoveling
while Mom is throwing snowballs
up at my window.

In reply, I stuck
out my tongue and waved at her.
It looks cold outside.

You are, of course, welcome to leave Thanksgiving haiku here as well.

Claire and Chairborne thanks
for stopping by their weblog,
is this a haiku?

Claire said...

lol, works for me. There are more rules for traditional haiku, but I'm just going with the 5-7-5 approach.

Good job!

Scholiast said...

Thanksgiving has passed
We all knew it could not last
- sorry I rhymed there

Next week: Shakespearean sonnets...

Merujo said...

Bought a pre-cooked bird
And awful pre-cooked stuffing
Next year I will cook

Marq said...

Turkey was quite good
Pre-cooked was fast and easy
Apple pie is best

Claire said...

Scholiast- I have to love any poem that apologizes for rhyming within it.

Merujo- I hope you had some good pie!

Marq- yea! good to see you here.

Bravo everybody! Oh, and this was actually my first haiku the other day from over at Cathy's:

Thanksgiving haiku?
This could become addictive.
Now, another verse...

There is snow here too.
I don't expect it to last.
Sunday, it will melt.

We already ate
the breakfast of champions.
It's time for dessert.
