Readers of my poetry have asked if I have any additional haiku to share. As a result, I have posted this piece, which is obviously not real haiku. But, it is original and very representative of my sense of humor. I hope you have some fun with it. Enjoy.
49 Syllable Haiku
This winter we will capture
only perfect snow flakes.
Using great care,
we will write the Lord’s Prayer
on each one.
We will bottle the snow
in flasks marked GINSENG
and then sell them
as holy water.
