If I could write one
I could win one thousand bucks
Well, my haiku stinks.
Maybe just one more
I should at least stretch my brain
But it’s 8am!
Time to write on mom
A fitting tribute to her
If only I could!
Mama, it is true
I knew not how I loved you
until this haiku
Well, I guess it’s time
To stop planning what I’d do
with a load of cash…
Do you know how many times I counted those syllables?! If they aren’t 5-7-5, please don’t tell me. Just don’t.)

I give you an ‘E’ for effort!
well… you made me smile, and that counts for something- right?
I didn’t count, but it is WONDERFUL! The whole dang thing!

You’re too clever!
Amanda I tried
To do one as well and they
Are just way too hard!
Sure you can do it
For your fantastic mama
I just know you can
I teach haiku’s and always miscount the syllables…the kids are much better than I.
I do Haiku Friday, and Ed reads my haiku most weeks. Two weeks ago, I lost a bet on how many syllables a word was. I never bet on ANYTHING. What WAS I thinking?
I think you did a fabulous job! At least you tried! HUGS!
I’m glad I didn’t see this contest until it was over. Too many brain cells!
